REFLECTIONS © 2011
I cry for humanity
As if it were my identity,
For I carry within me its pains,
Its hopes and its fears,
Each tear, each smile,
Is a reflection of what I am and what I need.
We are all made of the same essence,
Sharing the burden and the awareness,
And, in weeping for the lost humanity,
I find myself in this life.
In collective suffering, there is a truth,
A deep connection, a reality,
That we are one, in a single heart,
Seeking peace, love, and redemption.
