What Divides Us? Poem by Rey Benipayo

Who divides us
Is just us
It it's not intentional
Nor coincidental
It's a choice we make
We drive our own lives
We have our own freedoms.

We are divided
Because of our personalities
Our beliefs
Our differences
Our culture
Our tradition
Our religion
Our group
Or any circumstances.

It's nobody's fault
If we are divided
For we can't live without it
We live in a challenging world
Where everyone's competitive
Everyone's have it's own rules
For life is like a game we play
So it's to us, we all have decisions
We have our own knowledge
We have our own power to connect
To utilize at the end of the day.
