We complain about many things that happen in the world When in fact is our fault for global warming on the Earth. So much money the evil supremacy depletes When there’s so many in Africa without any food to eat. We don’t realize how lucky we are, to have the five senses we received from God. We have sight, to see the world around us And the eyes of our soul to look inside and forever guide us We have the ability to taste Not only literally but we can taste a sweet day We have the precious gift to hear Like hearing the voice of the ones we hold dear We have the sense of smell, to breathe in the air Smell the air of emotions, even those that aren’t clear And lastly we have the sense of touch or feel with our hearts with no remorse but we complain of this messed up world were deaths and disasters are out of control We got to get our essence together no more vendettas against each other So many are hungry for power and go through life lying but at the end of our road what do we take after dying? Appreciate the ones Who have brought you light Because the day of tomorrow They might not be alive My soul slits in two every time I listen to six year old suicide bomber taking his life and others too. When I hear in the news that someone is dead it brings my eyes to tears and my heart to tiny shreds. We don’t understand that we only have one life instead of wasting it with grudges learn to live it right. Let harmony go in your heart and slowly, but surely God will cure your scars. Don’t step on others to feel superior, what do we get from making others feel inferior? I ask myself Will you remember this advice? Will you listen to my words? And try to make the world all right? Will everyone learn to survive in this place And not judge each other by religion or race? I have a DREAM Where the inside is what matters Where the color of skin Is not an important matter. We are all equal as living beings We all have a beating heart And dreams ready to spread their wings If you have a dream waiting to grow out of its seed Let it bloom into a flower Before it’s to late to be in grief. I wish of a day were we put our hate away And not letting revenge get its dreadful way When that day comes And we face our fears That’s when the world doesn’t shed an ocean of tears.

About this poem:
I guess this is a lil someting that came from the heart, sometimes we get caught up in so many things and troubles that ponder our minds that we forget life is short so enjoy it, and help those who are less fortunate. god bless.

Yes, sometimes it is easier to see the path others should take while we remain in an ocean of tears. May we learn to taste a sweet day.
