Where is the Love?


I look around at the world of which I'm a part of, and then I always ask a simple question: Where is all the love? I cannot be at peace when people are not free. This is not how we were meant to be. I see people who cannot marry the love of their life. I see countries and families torn apart by war and strife. Gender and race; the lack of equality, I do not think this is how it's supposed to be. Like a seed that blows in the gentle breeze, I want to spread love and put bigotry down on one knee. Every human - every soul - deserves happiness. They shouldn't be harmed; others must lose bitterness. Why am I inspired? Deep within my heart, there is a scorching fire that demands I help my fellow man- Screams at me to give them my hand. My one wish is to deliver upon the world a soothing rain. To cast away the reign of intolerance and fear, to deliver humanity from tyranny's pain.
