TEARS FOR HIS PEOPLE
With head bowed, spirit and will broken, the warrior sees the worst of his people’s fears,
For the loss of their precious freedom, he sheds the first of his many tears.
For now his people are subjected
to the conquerors every whim.
So hatred between the races will fill hearts to the very brim.
If humans could only understand
not all people can be the same,
They could avoid so many heartbreaks and mankind so much shame.
Maybe the day will come
when our understanding and tolerance has increased,
So we can live together as brothers
with goodwill, happiness, and peace.
