Empty Hands

by Abby Leidel, 13

I come to fight you with only empty hands

Grasping at the hope that you will show me mercy

As I have done for you

Take my hands and there will be

no bloodshed, no lives shall be lost

No mothers will cry out over the death of a child

Take my hands and watch as the wars fade away

Watch with me as a man spares the life of another

For there is light in his soul

If we all fight with empty hands

The world might know peace

So let go of your guns, your blades,

your bombs, your bullets

Empty your hands

Do not fight each other

Fight the darkness that tries to consume us

For we are all fragmented pieces

When we come together, we are whole
