Enough!

                                                    Enough!  by Melba Evans

When will it be time?
Are we not tired yet?
We stand so proud
But we follow like sheep
Rhetoric that proclaims
Anything but unity
And judges us
And divides us.
When will we say enough

When will it be time?
Are we not tired yet?
When will we come together
And stop taking sides
And stand side by side
And look at each other with new eyes
And tear down the walls the past
Has erected?
When will we say enough?

When will it be time?
Are we not tired yet?
When will we stop fighting each other
And fight for each other?
When will we break the bonds of
Religion and culture
And run to each other
Not away from each other?
When will we say enough?

When will it be time?
Time to say enough.
Pas plus, non piu, no mas!
When is it time to
Not just talk the talk
But walk the walk
Hand in hand
Together
For the common good!
