everybody hurts,
because people hurt each other.
everybody screams,
because they need a way out.
everybody dreams,
they crave,

they doubt.
everyone loves,
but sometimes they don't love




one another.
and it's sad.
someone has to stand up,
they have to be brave,
they have to get up
and say "we're in this together."

we have to be


told time and time
again that, because we
made this mess,

we're going to fix it.

The author's comments:
I feel like everyone in this world has a voice, and that we should actually speak for once. Speak out against terrorism and racism, and bullying and all that stuff. I feel that we should end the war, look past our differences, and work together to make this world a better place. I have a dream. We all should. So why can't we help each other to pursue them?
