This is MY Vision

It’s the wars that we study,

And the people so bloody.

The pain in their eyes,

When bombs fill the skies.

It all seems so foreign;

So strange…

There is so much in life,

That I strive to change.

This is my vision:

A world without pain,

Where no one is slain,

With so much disdain.

There are children;

Can you hear them cry?

The pain in their eyes,

When a parent says goodbye.

I cannot understand

Why people need to abuse,

Children so innocent,

Marked solely by a bruise.

This is my vision:

A world without pain

Where children aren’t chained,

And held in disdain.

People are screaming,

At enemies and friends.

Hate filled eyes,

With so many bad ends

Walking away…

In the opposite direction,

Unwilling to fix

And make the correction.

This is my vision:

A world without pain,

Where people aren’t trained,

To laugh at the insane.

There are people young and old,

They live on the streets,

And when it is cold,

All they have is some sheets.

I want to know why,

The world has come to this?

Where people are alone and scared,

With no goodnight kiss.

This is my vision:

A world with so much pain,

Where the dark and cold rain,

Causes so much strain.

But this is MY vision!

So I can change what I see,

I take back the wars, the enemies and hate

Now please, please just listen to me.

I see sky scrapers falling,

And smoke stacks collapsing,

I see the trees growing,

Where there are animals roaming.

Now can’t you see I am trying to fight,

For the people I care for,

And I am trying to fight,

Against another world war.

I see friends; of every color and race,

Helping each other with a loving embrace,

But this should have been the case

In the very first place.

I see no more fighting,

No more pain in the world.

Because in my vision…

Love is unfurled.
