Understand
Do you see?
Can you see it there past the skin?
Beneath the flesh and environment that may differ?
Do you learn?
Can you learn to forget the image?
Beneath your own opinions, facts, and rumors?
Do you feel?
Can you feel the fire and drive within them that makes them stand though they're opposed?
Beneath the experiences of your own life and mistakes; your past and present?
Do you know?
Can you remember that they too have a past and present?
Beneath the visor you put over the rest of the world that hides the views that aren't yours?
Do you understand?
Can you recognize that they too have seen, felt, known?
Beneath their environment, opinions, and past?
Under- We all have something
Stand- Together we can if we acknowledge.
Understand.
