Walk a Mile

You preach your truth, you claim you see,

But your narrow gaze is a locked-up key.

The world’s a canvas, a million hues,

Yet you paint it black with your chosen views.

Step outside your bubble, take a different stance,

See the world through eyes that you don’t understand.

Walk a mile in someone else’s shoes,

Feel the weight of the life they didn’t choose.

Open minds with open hearts,

Compassion is how it starts.

The mother struggling to make ends meet,

The refugee searching for safe retreat.

The outcast silenced, who needs a friend

Yet you rant and rave with no hand to lend

Compassion isn’t weakness, it’s the only fight,

To bridge the gap and make it right.

Walk a mile in someone else’s shoes,

Feel the weight of the life they didn’t choose.

Open minds with open hearts,

Compassion is how it starts.

Break down the walls, destroy the fear,

Empathy’s the weapon; let’s make it clear.

We’re all just humans, born to feel,

The pain, the joy, the need to heal.

Walk a mile in someone else’s shoes,

Feel the weight of the life they didn’t choose.

Open minds with open hearts,

Compassion is how it starts.

So hold your judgment, extend your hand,

Together we’ll build a better land.

Open eyes, a brand-new view,

The path to hope begins with you.
