If Only...

If only my smile shone through

And showed the truths inside

For every day I put on a smile

To hide the tears inside

 

If only the cries of people in need

Would be answered by the rest of the world

The pain of others finally healed

And never caused again

 

If only there were no wars

Peace finally reached

Humans finally seeing the rest of mankind

With compassion instead of hatred and fear
