If only this was a perfect world
Where all could be set free
Where words were expressed
And read with love and devotion
If only there was never feuds
Where friends fell out at times
Where friendship was created
And it always reigned true
If only people could be equal
And forgive any injustice
So everyone could fit in
Instead of competing to win
If only poetry was that simple
To touch everyone in so many ways
That we could understand the true meaning
Where so many poems mean so many things
If only I could find the solution
To help make everyone find happiness
Where we love the friendship we have
Because then, I would find happiness too

Where so many poems mean so many things
If only I could find the solution
To help make everyone find happiness
Where we love the friendship we have
Because then, I would find happiness too
