Looking Back At You and Me

What do we see,
                                                               
about the world-about you and me.
                                   
Both good and bad we do learn,
                                         
many times we even get burned.
                                       
Why do we not see only good,
                                           
if only each of us could.
                                             
Each of us are very special,
                                               
like the flowers of a delicate petal.
                                     
Why do we cause hurt and pain,
                                       
is it for our foolish gain.
                                                   
Only in our hearts and minds can we change,
                     
then we will be loved and not estrange.
