Excellence Award in the 'Horizon of Dreams 2018' competition
They stare, they jeer, they laugh, they sneer,
They act as if we are not here
Our skin is dark, our eyes look strange,
They refuse to accept this new range
Of people, of these refuge seekers,
They like their land, it's finders keepers
I know we're different, that is true,
But no matter what, we're humans too.
