Think

Since when did we forget
The scent that smells so sweet?
Since when did we forget
The sound that gives off peace?

If only we could go back
To the world that we once knew
To The world that weren't so black
To The world as white as snow

The world of peace and harmony
When fights and laws couldn't kill
When justice couldn't be bought
When love wasn't so cheap

Don't blame anyone
For the world we live in now
It was all our actions
That made this world so red

I used to be so hopeful
Towards the people around the world
But now I understand
The nature of us humans

Even if given another chance
To repair the damage
We would still destroy
What we have at hand

But think about it
Think of the world
The world in the past
And how it'll be in the future

Many have said
To leave a better world
For the people we'll leave behind
For the children waiting to be born

But have we ever considered
To teach our children
To leave better people
For this beautiful place?

Think about it.
Don't let life
Waste away...

Lies

I pull up my socks, Put on my clothes. How I get up everyday, I do not know. Into this world of hatred. This world of anger. The government's lies. The common's lies. The celebrity's lies.

The Human Touch

To try to have the human touch. Is a tricky thing indeed. To try to help your fellow man. Deep within his hour of need. To ignore a hurtful taunt. Is the hardest thing to do.

Hope

#opussweeklychallenge. Dear Future. I hope that this letter. Wasn't written in vain. I hope it isn't lost. In the ash and the rain. I hope that the thunder. And the lightening desists.

'Secrets'.

There once were things called 'secrets', And everyone had their own, That little bit of them was dark, And in its right: alone.

Actions Speak Louder

You whisper in my ear As you hold me so near The rain coming down And it's you wearing the crown The king of humour Of gentleness and wit They all call you a "git" But they don't know you Just see...

Dogma

In the kennels dogmas lie, seeking those who will not ask, Breeding in deep rooted fears, finding home in suspicion's mask.
