Human Imprint

Human Imprint

A Poem by Rachel Rashid

So many places, different races
Broken hearts, worried faces
196 nation,
795 million people with no tummies to feed 
A world made up of discrimination, loathe and greed 
What about nature, society, education?
What about our future generations?
I see revolution, but no evolution 
I see violence, poverty, and pollution 
Could humans become extinct? 
Will any of us leave an imprint?
What we need to understand is that we are made up of many bodies, but one soul 
And what happens to one, happens to all 
Be the change you wish to see in the world 
and remember you can change it with only one word 
What if we unite rather than fight?
What if we see each other as humans, not black nor white?
What if all this noise became quiet? 
And we're all standing in the light?
Will our lives be right?

Hello!
I just love courageous reads like this, and I make it a point to praise them (because for SOME REASON, they usually don't get many comments...which says a lot).
Another powerful and necessary piece going into my fav stash, yep.
Thanks for sharing.
