    Red Mans Heart Bleeds Red
    We may look different on the outside
    But on the inside we are the same
    I can be happy I can feel sad
    I can feel this thing called pain

    I breathe the air I drink the water
    My body has the same needs
    My heart breaks my tears fall
    And like you my body bleeds

    The sky was blue the sun shone bright
    My people were happy and free
    Then one day we were took away
    Our land we’ll never again see

    Many were sick and many died
    As we traveled the tear stained trail
    In our hearts we question why?
    All the peace treaties began to fail

    We were created in Gods image
    Though they rejoiced to see us dead
    It makes you wonder if they knew
    That the Red Mans Heart bleeds red

    The true philosopher and the true poet are one, and a beauty, which is truth, and a truth, which is beauty, is the aim of both.

    Ralph Waldo Emerson, American Poet (1803-1882)
