#betterworld
She looks at the crimes of the world before her. Destruction wreaked, hopes crushed, and lives ended. The darkness of this world is suffocating, yet the beauty still shines through. Sunrise, sunset, love, innocence, kindness. As the night fades to light around her, she prays for a better world. She cries with the dawn.

She Cries With The Dawn
The rhyme of muses in psychic grain Often I sit and mental diffuses I stake my claim - In thought concluded To sit and Divine, but never excuse The tools on which the bridge I sit may be Shared and used - and liberally so But at last the rhyme complete And all divining drops to my feet And my heart has returned from the sea Arms extend from the bridge on which i sat Helping amend the excuses once mused at And a heart too wise to offend I got my heart back but no letter from thee, I care not for signs or even Peters see It is so, for it was requested of me Ultimately the letter lost on clouded ears Wasted ink? No, wasted fears. No thoughts shed, and neither tears. The demons are at bay, the angels walk freely It is not a wasted day, I got to see the bridge, I await the morrow eagerly.

The Letter Bridge
Freedom was never an issue No one had ever thought Of existence of another world

A frog in the well
Rhythms and beats touch our hearts, music turns us into believers as it helps us bear the everyday pain, In the song we find our prayers, and the hope remains...

Hope remains
I could not stay, without an escort we traveled under the seven heavens and only later did I realize that up there are the souls of Adam – expelled just like us John and Jesus – the messengers Joseph – rejected by his family and Enoch – the living teacher Aaron – still loved Moses – the patient in the desert of unbelief and Abraham – the first to surrender With borrowed eyes I see under the heavenly light the radiant new Jerusalem, the city that we are going to build here

In the dead of night (Song about borrowed eyes)
Put guns into the hands of children Put bullets through their hearts Soldiers killed before the war’s begun those who were to carry tomorrow’s flag Lie buried beneath their elder’s feet How many lives in the name Of justice, Revenge, Or greed? The future dies with each of them.

He Died of a Gunshot Wound
Sitting in this dark room, with my eyes closed I feel a world, the feeling is so lively, so beguiling, as this world slowly unfolds Its a world where people don’t talk, but sing Where people don’t walk but hop Where people don’t fight for the spotlight Where people greet each other with ringa-ringa-roses Where bruises are cured by gentle fondles, Where people cry laughing, Where everybody is a proven man, Where everybody is a lovely woman, Where nobody fights with his own friend trying to win over him in his fight for the first Where ego is only as real as satan, Where god is seen and felt in every human being Where money is just a piece of paper Where religion is music and dance Where peace is filled in air and is felt in every breath Where strangers dance and sing together, Where heart breaks are as sinful as ****** Where school is a place to learn what is life about Where the teacher teaches how to live it fully Where we are one with the universe and universe is one with us Where one is no different from two and two is no different from three And zero is as high as one-not-four

Don't talk but Sing
My mission in life is not too complex It isn't to cause hate, nor is it to impress It's quite simple, but only if you see it the right way I try achieving this goal every single day It's right when they say this world's too small for hate It saddens me when peace is disrupted among a country or a state So I try to start small but make an impact big To get a smile on that face; Oink Oink I'm a pig A smile on that face is the prettiest thing in this world It will handle any object your life has hurled Happiness is contagious; it gives everyone a reason to smile It speaks volumes about you; way more than your resume file To make someone smile or get someone's heart burst with joy Is something I'd do in a jiffy without being joy So get ready for this ball of happiness, it's coming to you Together lets change this world and give it something new So put a smile on someone's face and just see the satisfaction you get It's like freeing an animal from a cage or a net It loosens your burdens and makes you feel lighter How do you think some are cured of cancer? Medicines? No no...Their smiles are the real fighter So get rid of this negativity cavity And spread around the positivity So heal the world and make it a better place Life is a group activity, not an individual race...
