What has the world come to?
I travel upstream in the world looking for peace but I'm unable to find it,
I run to the north, I see killing.
I run to the east, I see hatred.
I run to the south, I see racism.
And finally I run to the west and I see discrimination.
Where shall I go now?
The world has been sheltered with dishonesty, criminality and delinquency.
There is no escape, it's a prison now.
Love has faded,
Peace has vanished,
And honesty has disappeared.
I'm tired of people jumping into conclusions,
I'm drained of seeing disturbing actions,
I'm jaded of hearing unbefitting appelations,
I'm tired...
But there are no solutions
Humanity has been corrupted
Even if it's unwanted.
Every night I close my eyes
and hope to wake up in a tranquil world
But everyday my hope weakens more
as I wake up to the exact same heartless world.
I dream that hatred would abandon the world
and peace would be welcomed.
If we could learn how to love, we would solve every single problem.
you may say it's just a dream
But that dream will not be just a dream if everyone could make it a goal
How shall we ever restore humanity if everyone keeps on building their own paradise by destroying other people's paradise.
Let's not just sit and watch
Let's improve,
Let us make it a better place.
This poem is about things that has been happening in the world lately.
