A Single Heart


If I could change one little thing in this world,

I would change my own heart. 

To be truly unselfish,

To care about others no matter what.

After all, everything in this world

is so easily influenced, made to live for itself.

If I was converted to peace, truth, and love,

Everything I touched would begin to live for everyone else.

I know that I am the problem,

Though I am only one girl.

If I were given a pure, loving heart,

I would change the world.
