~a World ...~

I want;

a world that cares more than less,
that doesn’t hide behind flowery dress.

A world that doesn’t lie about truth,
or being “un-cool” isn’t being uncouth.

A world where friends are gifts not bought
and mindless actions are a forgotten thought.

A world that sees, not like the blind
but with tinted vision at last untwined.

A world whose head looks to their feet,
unafraid of what their sight may meet,

a world where “I” can really mean “we”,
a world that accepts, me for me.
