Stand Up and Believe

Stand up. Reach high. Reach out.
All of us.
Those of us with guilt stricken minds,
heavy hearts and tormented souls,
please come with us.
Reach up. Look up. Believe.
From whatever background, let us just let our diversity soar.
Grab the hand of a suffering man.
Let us work together and make a stand.
Being divided has left our bodies bruised.
It is time to seek forgiveness.
It is time to let old grudges go.
Let the chains of anger fall to the ground.
Let us take our first step forward.
Our imagination shall be released.
What has forever been afraid to be dreamed shall be believed…
And it shall then become so long as we decide to take the first step and stand up.
