#YouMatter

Location

We live in a time, 
a society where sides are taken, 
on who's life matters more? 
#blacklivesmatter
#bluelivesmatter
 
Passionate allegiances 
formed on social platforms
making one feel empowered 
superior, 
indignant. 
 
It's not our facebook profile pic
thats going to change the world. 
It's how we choose to see 
ourselves,  
one another. 
 
Our bodies are merely a casing
that houses our soul, our brains, our hearts
See mine and I will see yours
without judgement
without color
 
We are more alike than different
When I look at you, I see what you're made of
not what you're made in
see me the same
