I have a dream that one day I'll be able to scream my love from the top of a mountain, in the middle of a bustling city, in a meadow, a cave, a valley, where the echoes of my words will fly forever. A dream that one day, without guilt, I can say how you make me feel. A dream that one day, that I can hold you without looking over my shoulder. One day, one day I can show you the stars, the rivers, the world without shame, that no longer we would have to hide in solitude together. Forced into a constricting box, which gets smaller, and smaller the more we struggle. I want to move freely and live freely. 

I have a dream that my lover and I can breathe that same air, live the same life without the angered looks from others. A dream that no matter how people look, how people act, how people love, how people talk, how they may seem from the outside, that they are still looked at as human. That your empathy, compassion, respect, admiration, is not conditional. That you don't only accept one, but all.

I have a dream today!!

I have a dream that one day not just get to experience these joys of life, the wonders of living, but everyone who has ever felt executed. That you look past all, and see the breaths they take, the steps they walk, the words they speak, the imagination in their mind. I have a dream that their humanity shines through their clothes, their skin, their blood, their bones. 

I have a dream today!!

I have a dream that one day, every day, whether a hurricane rakes through my house or a typhoon rips through yours, people will come together, help others, whether their ideals align or not. That regardless of who I am or who you are we can come together. 

This is my hope that people will follow from their children, that people aren't born with the cruelty they hurl at others. That for children no amount of shades or lenses can conceal the intrinsic shine everyone has, for everyone is human. 

With this faith, we will be able to live. We will be able to love. We will be able to untie.
