I wrote this a few years ago....it was given to me one evening following the Manchester Arena attack
I feel in these current times its words have so much meaning.
So much hurt,
So much division.
A circle of loathing,
An idolatry prison.
The bombing, the killing,
Innocent lives lost.
More futures wiped out
But all at what cost.
We are all born through love,
A new life was given.
And snuffing one out,
Is in darkness driven.
Lets come together,
There's more that unites us.
We need to start talking,
To stop this true crisis.
Whatever your religion,
A Believer or not.
Your colour, age or gender
It doesn't matter one jot.
I'll start with my hand,
Held out in the dark.
Please accept this small gesture
A new journey to embark.
My voice may be small,
But with yours it grows loud.
Add in lots of others
It becomes a good crowd.
Let's start spreading love,
Hate is a non starter.
Together we're stronger,
Our Lives are not open to barter.
