In the quiet streets where whispers dwell,
Stories of difference begin to swell.
Eyes cast down, hearts heavy and cold,
Dreams of equality left untold.

Faces marked by unseen lines,
Divided by walls, constructed by minds.
Silent screams echo through the night,
As hopes of unity take flight.

Chains of prejudice hold so tight,
Binding souls in an unjust fight.
Yet beneath the surface, fires burn,
A longing for change and freedom’s return.

Rise, voices, from shadows deep,
Break the silence that others keep.
For in the light of understanding’s grace,
Discrimination finds no place.
