Trade,Globalization,Terrorism and Corruption
What's the difference?

Each of us look at the world with open eyes yet with closed minds.

We see the structures of society right before us
yet we can do nothing to alter its existence
Marxism, Liberalism, Elitism, lenses that see a point but not the whole picture

The age of politics is over, the market comes to be our master
I know some might argue over me in this, but hear me out still.

The world we live in is like a senseless commodity
Our natural resources is taken every day

To create excess cars, excess food, excess everything
The surplus is too much that its overflowing with decay
Another thing is war,

A place where precious lives are seen to be walking bags of meat.
The preach for violence that could've created peace, and for what ?
To protect the free world? where the rich sit in high places
and some of us pushed down to supply their greed
Globalization is a license, a license to what?

A license to ****, a license to invade other states
without the use of soldiers to force out our will
We become docile as people in their wake and companies are laughing as we speak.

These corrupt figures ,conflict is their business, opportunity and peace is their excuse.

Human integration is what they say and offer, for a better society they say.

But look at us now, where is the promise of a future in the world today?

The world terrorizes me, terrorizes the people who are willing to see
and if I am in terror, what makes the system different from the loud bombs we hear when they explode.

They only made ways to make the killings silent and the experience more traumatic.

I'm sorry if globalization is a bad thing for me, but living in our country, globalization harms before it can give
it takes before we can receive.

In a cold and moon lit night,
I met a girl who could hold her own in a fight.

She was tired and weary from the battles of the day,
Yet she manages to smile so beautifully all the way.

She had little to no time to spare,
But then I can't believe her efforts just to be there.

Time waits for no man that is true,
So i took the chance to do the things I could do.

A simple dinner was all I could offer,
To my shock it was she who insisted to bother.

I dedicated a song on how wonderful she is no matter what,
To my stupidity, I wasn't able to sing straight because of the butterflies in my gut.

The way her eyes pierced through mine was like my mind shutting down, trying to restart.

The way she moves her head to the rhythm of the song was like an arrow to the the heart.

But then she had to say goodbye,
Time caught up with us and reminded her to fly.

It was a short walk to that taxi terminal,
But was the longest minute i had ever since her arrival.

The hug was warm and happy but then it was also sad,
The time we got was short but it was all we had.

And while the clouds cried tears by 10 pm,
The sky reminded us that wishes fall by 1 am.

It's not easy to live in a world bent on war, A place built on violence taken too far.

It's True humans are selfish warmongers, no matter how much it feeds on power, still it hungers.

Yet we are also a species of peace and love, Capable of reaching wonders down here and up above.

By selfish interests we are divided, by selfless thinking we are united.
The world is slowly dying, people should act rather than doing nothing.

Yes we have our flaws and imperfections, without them we wouldn't have the satisfaction of making corrections

But isn't that what we do? we make mistakes, we fall, we make everyone raise the stakes.

We risk it all, we show everyone we are not willing to fall
Yet hope still lives it would seem, it runs in our blood like river flowing in a stream.

We come up with something better, we become motivated to create the best things ever.

We are the perfect entities of love and life, yet why do we aspire death and strife?

Let us stop this fight, this useless dispute all bark no bite
See the wonder in everything, not destroy it instantly in a senseless beating.

Yes we are flawed, but that's what make us better than God.

She has an aura of pure white,
Like bright stars hovering over the calm moonlight.

She has wings that speak of radiant joy,
Each time i imagine them i feel serene similar to that of a little boy.

She walks with grace and beauty,
Her smile attracts people and bystanders making them and me happy.

Her voice lay soft and silent,
Her face ever calm and ever patient.

Yet why does she smile with sadness on her eyes,
Why does she laugh when all i can hear is her cries.

She stands with pride looking so tall,
Yet from the looks of it she's down and ready to fall.

She acts so strong but deep inside her is an agonizing pain,
She has a cut so deep she must've poured tears equivalent to rain.

Yet her life still burns like fuel to fire,
I see a woman whose will to succeed grows higher and higher.

Only time can cure the wounds in her heart,
Not a man who's broken from the very start.

I only wish she sees what i see beneath her emotional disguise,
I only hope she knows someone here loves her before i say my goodbyes.
