I Stand for You

by A.L.R

I stand not for the strong, 

but for the weak

I stand not for the doubtful 

but for the hopeful.

I stand not for the compassionless,

but for the compassion lacking 

I stand not for just one,

but for everyone left behind 

I stand not for them

but for you as well.

I stand for the world that was,

not for the world now

I stand for them memories missing,

not the vague sense of it

I stand not for the wrongdoings of the world,

but for the hope that one day we'll return

I stand for the innocents,

not the guilty

I stand for the voiceless

not those who have no problem making noise

The world needs a helping hand, 

I will be the helping hand.

 I stand for the morally right in the world,

I will not see it knocked down

I stand for the world.
