This poem is dedicated to black lives matter and all no discrimination campaigns.
I had a dream, a lucid one,
That I wish was real,
Where there was no discrimination upon anyone,
Everyone lived at ease, even the ones who started it,
I hope that dream will come true ,
I try my best waiting for that moment,
That everyone realizes they are all equal, no matter what,
And start to befriend those next to them,
We are all humans, with the same red-colored blood,
And we all have the rights to do something,
We should not be discriminated by our skin, gender, race and more,
We should not label those who are different,
As we are chosen to be different from others,
We all should stand and help those in need,
We should not discriminate on the basis of skin, gender and race,
As we all realize that all lives matter!
As I read your poem, it made me think of John Lennon's classic, Imagine. Let us hope we do not have to imagine much longer. As a disabled person, I was different. Many who knew me, thought of me as strong and resourceful, and didn't bother to help if I needed help. On the other hand, whenever I needed help out in public, people of all creeds and colors, stopped to give me a hand. We are all good and kind to those we do not fear. But unnatural fear is worse than no fear at all.
This reflective of MLK's dream, now, finally becoming the dream of many who are beginning to realize the extent of the problem. Beautifully written and evocative.
