Mentality

Love as a priority Has become a minority. Gratification makes promises unreal In love and life learning to deal. Mentality of a flower child Freedom is key, Butchered by Bin Laden, And even politics before he. Sixties and Seventies past, Is the philosophy forgotten? Is it possible to fit in? This new age may be rotten. Peace, love and harmony, Preach it to all; Move souls into the sublime, Let your ignorance fall. With inhibitions and hate, Greed, anger and fear; We are all Gods creations, Give children less reason for a tear. Hostility is created, Not born into babies; Purity is the beginnings of life, Ill-will infects us like rabies. The realization of reality, Love as a dream yet to come; Proving with acts and not words Is something not done. Life's paths hoped to be fairytales, Opportunity floats in the air; Built up dreams let down, Missing my breath and catching one rare. Spread this education, Enlighten new minds. Search for yourself, It's good what you find.
