Open Your Eyes

Open your eyes and see the pain Close them to refrain the horror, open your eyes to see the destruction close them to see peace, open your eyes to see death, close them to see life. Why is this world backwards, All the negative found its way out of the dark of nightmares and into he reality of life. Open your eyes to see starvation close them to see relief, open your eyes to see hate close them to see love, open your eyes to see grudges close them to see forgiveness, This world rotates the wrong way and all of us know it, yet we do nothing to send it back the right way. From now on when you see a horrid scene, dont close your eyes, keep them open and make a change, make a random strangers day, hold a door, make a compliment, try to fix this world of misery and hate.

Yes, we should do at least one thing a day to make life better for another. Keep the creative pen flowing. Sara
