—silence
falls on this day
—a vow
to fight against hate
falls on this day
—a vow
to fight against hate
—break
walls and barriers of ill
—mend
with arms open and lips sealed
—rainbow
is a color where beauty lies
—deprived
of a chance to be proud and shine
—come
together to bring the silence
—hear
and listen to voices of resilience
—when noise
that drowns their cries cease
—muted
only can we hear their pleas
—create
a community where love is safe
—a world
free to be one's self and on their own space
—louder
than hate, harassment, and bullying
—is love
in the silence of acceptance and protecting
