We Will Not Be Erased

Erased? Ha! Is that what you think?  
That you can erase us, make us small,  
Shrink us into nothingness with your laws, your silence?  
Oh, you’ve tried, haven’t you? Oh, how you’ve tried!  
But we, we will not disappear like shadows at dusk.  
No, we are here, and we are vast, as vast as the sky itself.

You think you can conquer love?  
Oh, my dear, love has been here long before you,  
And it will be here long after your laws crumble into dust.  
You see, love is eternal—didn’t you know?  
You may write us out of your books,  
You may pretend we do not exist,  
But look around you! We are everywhere.

You will not erase us.  
We rise, we shine, we love—  
And love, my friend, will conquer all.  
Oh, yes. All.
