Beliefs

We all hold our beliefs deep within

Our minds and lodged in our hearts.

What I find evil, maybe considered

A norm in your life and vice versa.

We were all raised differently with various

Backgrounds and tongues.

Some of us were raised with violence as a

Norm and have grown desensitized to hate.

Some of us were raised by praying on

Our knees, so we take each verse of the Bible

To heart and may even try to force our

Religious views on others without meaning

To cause harm.

Some of us were born in poverty,

Falling asleep with growling stomachs,

Dry throats, and shivering bodies.

Some of us were born in luxury,

Falling asleep on satin sheets,

Fur duvets, and hand-clapping lights.

We were all born to love and hate

Each other without reason.

We were all born to assume we are right,

Enough to force our beliefs on others,

But whatever you are and what you

Believe in, know we will all die with

Red blood.

Never force your beliefs on others

Or assume you know what's best for them.
