What Are We Leaving Them

What Are We Leaving Them

What are we

Leaving them

A legacy of love

Written in our lives

Colorblind to skin tone

Blind to disability?

What are we leaving them

A legacy of hate

Angry words spewn

Out

Like weapons

More powerful

Than an arsenal

Of guns?

What are we leaving them

Courage in the face

Of Adversity

Or Fear

To speak out

When necessary?

What are we leaving

Them

A legacy of

Love,

Or a legacy of

Hate?

The choice is yours

What will it be?
