You and I
Are similar in every way
Differences so small yet vast
Separated by definitions
Cultural or beliefs
Widens the gaps further
A great void inbetween
Don’t we feel pain
When others hurt us?
Don’t we feel happiness
When others are kind?
Emotions and feelings
Binds us together; in more ways than one
Differences in opinions
The essence of being human
Our birth right to believe
To be unique, to be ourselves
Threatened by society; by laws
As long as our beliefs are the same
No conflicts can be seen
Yet as soon as it’s different
Problems are destined to be
