Anyone else notice how our news
Is full of death and pain?
5 murdered, 4 in prison,
3 dead in accident, 2 missing,
1 heartbroken.
I'm waiting for the
Day when I can see something other than blood and grief on
The screen in front of me.
Show me a heart.
Show me a soul.
Show me love and life and joy and
Laughter.
I don't need proof that the world can be ugly,
Only that it can be beautiful.
