Poetry: The world changes when people change

by Brittany Welch

With just one touch
Or friendly glance
you can save the world
It's in your hands

With three simple words
That come from the heart
You can reunite
This nation apart

Don't be so quick
To jump to conclusions
Let your heart decipher
The eye's illusions

We judge out of fear
Of what we don't know
Afraid of possibly
Befriending a foe

Don't be afraid
To reach out and touch
Those people we think
Are so different from us

So open your heart
And let love unfurl
It's in your hands
You can save the world
