A Better Place


If I could change anything,

Anything in the world,

The world is what I would change.

I would change people,

People and their motivation.

Their motivation to help others,

To help others out of desire,

Desire just to help,

To help without rewards.

Rewards should not be their motive.

Their motive should be to help,

To help because there are people,

People who need help and but have nothing,

Have nothing of their own.

Their own needs would be fulfilled.

Fulfilled is how the world would be.

The world would be a better place.

A better place for everyone.
