  • What Right

    What right do you have to judge me

    So I am from a different

    Nationality

    Ethnic group

    Social background

    Race

    Creed

    Religion

     

    Yet am I not human

    Do we all not have

    Emotions

    Desires

    Hopes

    Joys

     

    What right do you have to judge me

    So I may have

    Wounds

    Birthdeffects

    Missing limbs

    Emotional scars

     

    Yet am I not human

    With the same

    Flesh

    Bones

    Network of veins

    A heart that pumps blood

    Lungs that give air

     

    What right do you have to judge me

    So I may be

    Old

    Young

    Man

    Woman

    Child

     

    Yet am I not human

    Do we all not have

    Dreams

    Ambitions

    The need to excel

    The need to prove our worth

     

    What right do you have to judge me

    So I may have

    Different color skin

    Different color eyes

    Different color hair

     

    Yet am I not human

    Don't we all wish to be

    Loved as well as in love

     

    Just because someone is different than you

    Gives you no right to judge them

    For we are all human

     

    Fighting the same battles
