Life is beautiful
Water lilies dancing in the ripples
But people are callous and cruel

Life is beautiful
The sun soothes my soft skin
But people lie and hate

Life is beautiful
Rain water rinses warm sweat away
But people build bombs

Life is beautiful
The night is cool and merciful
But people can’t seem to reciprocate

Life is beautiful
Full of wonder and descriptive words lack
The power to express that
But make it easy to see the dark ways
Of humanity
