The World

By Jermaine BouyerPublished 29 days ago 1 min read

In a world so vast, yet hearts seem small,

Bound by greed, we watch others fall.

Nature weeps, burdened by our sin,

Man's selfish ways, where to begin?

Wars rage on, tearing lives apart,

Compassion fades from every heart.

Injustice thrives, inequality grows,

Hope is crushed, as darkness flows.

Technology connects, yet drives us apart,

Human touch replaced, aching hearts.

Words are weapons, used to divide,

In this fractured world, can love abide?

But in the shadows, a flicker of light,

Kindness blooms, in the midst of night.

Courage rises, voices unite,

In the darkest hour, we find our might.

So let us strive, to mend the tears,

To erase the doubts, conquer fears.

For in our hands lies the power to heal,

To forge a world where all can feel.

In the chaos, a whisper of peace,

Echoes of unity, sweet release.

Let empathy guide us, through the storm,

To rebuild what's lost, to transform.

Let's sow seeds of hope in barren lands,

Embrace diversity, join hands.

For the world is a canvas, ours to paint,

Let love be our brush, without restraint.

Rise above the discord, the strife,

Embrace the beauty in every life.

Together we stand, in strength and grace,

To mend what's broken, in this earthly place.
