How to Survive As A Human

Stronger Together

by Heather Heino

Tumultuous and endearing faith, but,
Obstacles always getting in the way.
Growing old and longing for a better life.
Expecting the worst, preparing the knife.
Together we can win the impossible battle, but
Hatred separates us as we test our metal.
Evermore the flames of anger are nationally fueled.
Rioting in-country over political ideals.
We push back on each other more and more
Everyday, as they grow stronger,
Always calling our next play.
Reality is fractured, morals are obscured.
Everyone is praying for someone to send a savior. 
Sooner or later we must come to realize, that only
Together can we fight this plague in our lives.
Reach out to one another, secure our bond.
Only then can our power be wholly donned.
Now is the time to act, band together, and stay strong.
Go the extra mile to right what is wrong. 
Expecting one person to change the world is a foolish notion, so here's the
Reality, only by working together can we turn this nightmare into a dream.
