With knowledge comes responsibility

Yet only few step up to claim it

A responsibility lies on everyone’s shoulders.

A responsibility to do right.

But what happens when we do wrong?

When we offend?

We just sit and don’t take responsibility,

And then wonder how we hurt so many.

Of how we destroy our world,

For it is not just theirs.

Of how we are killing,

Of how we are hating

Those we don’t understand.

Of how we are simply existing

With only hatred in our hearts.

If we choose to learn.

If we choose to grow.

If we learn to accept those for who they are.

If we join together in love instead of hate.

If we learn to listen.

We will finally reclaim responsibility.
