Response

I come to you in your confusion
I come to you out of respect
I come to you with a different mindset
You look at me with disdain
As I walk through your hood
As I walk through your church
As I sit at your table
Diversity scares so many
Although it is preached so often
Why do you let fear overtake you
Why do you seek to push me away
What if I hold the answers you need
What if I have the cure to your illness
You judge my external while I do no wrong
You judge my actions that cause no harm
I am glad that I don't treat you like you treat me
I accept that you may not understand me
But I ask that you, judge not
