Shattering Shadows

"Rising Above Racism's Chains with Love's Light"

By samrin mohammadiPublished 3 years ago 1 min read

In the realm of human existence, a stain we bear, A poison that lingers, a curse we share, Let me paint a canvas with words profound, A slam poetry tribute to racism unbound.

Racism, oh racism, a blight on our soul, A disease that festers, taking its toll, It ravages hearts, tears communities apart, Leaving scars that haunt, etching pain in every heart.

In the tapestry of humanity's design, Why must we let divisions define? Skin-deep judgments, stereotypes so wrong, Limiting the melodies of life's diverse song.

From the whispered slurs to systemic chains, Racism whispers, leaving deep-rooted stains, It steals dreams, crushes spirits with its might, But we'll rise together, armed with love's light.

Let's break down the barriers, confront our fears, Unite as one, erase the lines that adhere, For in our diversity, lies our strength, A harmonious chorus, hand in hand we'll length.

Let empathy guide us, compassion ignite, The flames of understanding, shining bright, For beneath our skin, we share a common flame, In our hearts, love's essence, it's all the same.

Let's challenge the biases, defy the norm, Embrace our differences, weather the storm, For the power of unity, we shall proclaim, And extinguish racism's destructive flame.

Together we'll rise, fierce and unafraid, Through solidarity's embrace, love's cascade, In this battle against racism's strife, We'll rewrite the story, ignite change in life.

So let us stand tall, voices loud and clear, Break the shackles of hatred, make it disappear, In this fight for justice, we'll never rest, For a world without racism, we'll be truly blessed.

Racism, your days are numbered, hear our decree, A united force, we shall set humanity free, In love's embrace, we'll transcend the divide, For a world where racism, can no longer reside.
