If You Care

If you care and i care

And we all care

The world would more fair

In oneness and in pair


They fall and we fall

They fail and we fail even more

They suffer and we feel it too to the core

They fight and in those wars its also our souls


Blood drips through those diamonds

And to the stores we run buying those expensive items

It's infront of our eyes yet we ignore the sirens

Nothing is better until we act and start those dialogues

If we all made this a monologue within ourselves....there would be hope even for our Kenya now with all the hate speeches being charged... I really love your poem Njeri!
