Despair and Hope
On a regular basis we hear and read about bloodshed,
Clearly people are not thinking with their head,
To them, fighting seems like the only option,
But still yet, there is another undiscovered direction.
This direction is the path of peace and harmony,
Of which unity and togetherness is the main philosophy,
Many countries have embraced this new door,
But from other nations we are hoping for much more.
This approach to friendship,
Will surely result in a stronger level of comradeship,
Reinforcing to us the notion that the human race is all but one,
Just one big world living under the sun.
Sometimes windows may be closed and doors may be forgotten,
So let us open the window of our heart,
And turn over the page to make a new start.
Will the world suddenly change to a new awakening?
Will someone light the candle of hope?
I dream of an ideal world of pure harmony and joy,
Where children play and flowers bloom,
And a place where there is a minimal amount of doom and gloom.
