We hold these truths
In the palm of our two hands
Weighing as light as a feather
Feeling like the weight of the world
.
.
.We hold these truths
In the recesses of the mind
Passed on from one mouth
Down to the next ear
.
.
.We hold these truths
That shaped and guided us
Molded us to take on the world
Broke us to face our fears
.
.
.We hold these truths
That have become sacred lies
Held on to with much force
And yet given up without a fight
.
.
.We hold these truths
In hopes of keeping the faith alive
Of seeing the living thrive
Knowing that we must survive
.
.
.We hold these truths
From what has been done
Through what is now here
For what is yet to come
Hey!!! Hope you're well!

Leave some thoughts and see you in the next one 💖
