Every person has a voice
even if big or little
you can hear them; if you’d hear

Every person has a passion
even if popular or not
you can accept it; if you’d accept

Every person has a history
even if ordinary or destructive
you can look past it; if you’d look

Every person has a heart
even if whole or broken
we can love them; if we’d only learn to love

The author's comments:
Equality is something we all say we want, yet seem to never reach. This poem was inspired by the demand of a non-discriminative world.
