For We Stand United

We are letters
A, B, C…
We are colors
Red, Orange,Yellow…
We are pitches
Do, Re, Mi...

We are…
Thoughts. Beliefs. Opinions. People.
Independent. Distinct. Proud. Different.

Thoughts too independent.
Beliefs too distinct.
Opinions too proud.
People. Too. Different.

People too blind.
People too stubborn.
To see truth.

For when we stand united...
Words are created
Words more powerful than letters.

For when we stand united...
Art is created
Art more powerful than colors.

For when we stand united...
Music is created
Music more powerful than pitches.

For when people stand united...
Communities are created
Communities more powerful than individuals.

To individuals who refuse to see truth
To you I say...

For. We. Are. Just. People.
Is that not enough?
