Change


The world as we see it

is different then it is

children crying

people dying

there’s no cure

for us to see reality

as it truly is

we have to open our eyes

to solve the problems

at our doors

open our hearts

to let love come in

cause once love is present

all problems can be solved

no thing is too big

no issue is too large

to be solved by humanity

to be solved by the ones who created them

we need to educate the public

we need to show them the truth

the truth about the world

the truth about life

the truth about death, sadness, and fear

because once they can see

once they finally know what is happening

they will not be able to sleep

not be able to live with themselves

knowing how bad the world truly is

change only happens once enough of us really want it

change only happens

when we all can see truth
