We.......

We speak a secret language
We never stopped to learn
We all put out the fire
We still linger in the burn

We forget our friends and neighbors
We bend to idle hands
We waste our blessed time
We lay our ground in sinking sand

We search for authenticity
We elect the biggest frauds
We fly on wings of eagles
We have stripped of all their claws

We all just want the truth
We surrender to the lie
We all just want our freedom
We sit silent when it dies

We all just contradict
We all just become a prop
We all just need to stand up tall
We all just need to stop

YES and yes. Oh that wish that the ridicule would stop on both sides and acceptance take its place for the sake of all living side by side. Your rhyme is effortless with a beautiful if not truthful message. Well written friend.

Thank you so much! This just came out of me, and sometimes you worry about those. Your reaction is exactly what I hoped for. Thank you for reading.

:). Mission accomplished.

Well rhymed, but who exactly is the titular "We" of this one? Hard to believe everyone is guilty of these accusations.

We all fall short my friend. How we do so is open to the wind. But I get what you're saying.
