“We're all human, aren't we? Every human life is worth the same, and worth saving.”
― J.K. Rowling, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows


Nothing will come
From
Us
We will not
Be
Remembered
One hundred or
Two
Years
From now nobody
Will speak
Our names
Nothing will come
From
Us
If we believe
That
Saying
So step away from
That
Wall
Get into the
Open fields
Of possibility
Because nothing will come
From
Us
If we don’t even
Try
And Nothing will come
From
Us
We’re nothing but
Simple
Kids
One hundred or
Two
Years
From now nobody
Will speak
Our names
But nothing will come
From
Us
If we’re too
Scared
To try
So let nothing come
From
Us
Be too afraid
To
Try
Keep your hand on
That
Wall
But don’t start to
Cry

My friend said to me once, "Nothing will ever happen because of us. We'll never impact the world or do anything significant. We don't matter. Nobody matters and nothing matters at all." Thus, this poem.
