Sometimes (All It Takes)

Sometimes
Just one
Little light

In the darkness
From a friendly
Helping hand

Is all one needs

To get through

Their day
Sometimes
One little voice
Of reason
That cuts through

The deafening silence
Is all it takes
To bring about change
Sometimes
All it takes
Is an ear
Willing to listen
And hear

What is actually

Being said
And not
Just what

They want

To hear instead
To bring about
Understading
Where there is
Confusion
And sometimes times
All it takes

Are two little eyes
And a mind
Open wide
To see the truth
Of somebody
That hides behind
The stereotype
That has left
Far too many
Of us blind
