a poem about wanting change and a better future... (Beauty From Ashes Contest)
Walk Forward


A world of war and hate,
is the place where we live in.
I hope it's not too late,
for us to change and begin.

Together, let's save Earth,
allow peace and love to reign,
take away all the hurt,
and free ourselves from the pain.

Take me to the future---
where everything is great,
a place filled with rapture,
let's go before it's too late.

Take me to tomorrow.
Won't you take me there today?
Erase all my sorrows,
brighten up my darkest days.

Tomorrow is unknown.
Yet I'm not really afraid.
"I won't leave you alone."---
that's the promise that you made.

So let's leave yesterday,
face tomorrow without fear.
Please take me there today---
to the future that is near...
