We all share one planet,
So why do we all destroy it?
And the government who say
They care,
Give me quite a scare.
Humans destroying other humans,
They destroy our planet, too;
So much pain and human-
suffering, even in the eyes
of the young.
Can we not learn to live in
peace?
Is it not the right thing to do?
It seems the world is unequal,
In a world that is supposed to be
tranquil.
I'm afraid we can't change the world,
But we can change our hearts;
Creating peace in others,
Even if they are not our brothers;
So, even if just for today,
Let us make peace and be ok,
Look inside your hearts,
It's not too much to ask.
