If Only
In a world, where turmoil reigns supreme,
the leaders, man, live by their rules.
Never considering what life truly means,
leaving themselves, resembling fools.
For eons, now, with arrogant pride
they ruled and still rule, with iron fist.
However keen or smart they claim to be,
they live in a fog, can’t ‘scape the mist.
There is a hope, yet, here for all
Given as gifts within the being.
Open your hearts and then your eyes
Witness the love that’s there to be seen.
For if love were to rule, instead of a man,
Things would be better, all for the good.
Considering others would always come first,
But if only… if only… if only they could.
