Like a compass

In the middle of the sea

Facing the wind

Which way do I go

Or do I stand still

Because no matter the choice

Am still searching

Am here in my mind

Searching for answers

Listening to this song

"If I lose myself I lose it all"

But who I am?

I have spent my life reacting

Whether it was to poverty

Ignorance

Pain of family

The world can seem so unfair

You can be ten times smarter

Ten times nicer

But the wrong color

The wrong gender

Wrong country

This Dream call equality

Is still being dreamt

When did we become

Slaves with just more rights

Than our past.

My four walls are speaking
