The Human Race
The human race is ugly, yet beautiful,
Humans are destroyers, yet saviors, Humans are impure with many imperfections,
But also, can be pure at the same time. Humans are fearful of many things they do not understand, Yet find joy and beauty in life.
We are builders and destroyers,
Capable of evil, yet full of goodness.
We are a race that can be loving, caring, and kind,
Yet we are capable of hatred and a lot of selfish needs.
We are an emotional race with feelings,
that creates ocean from our tears.
Our laughter can move mountains,
And our happiness only can light up the world.
But our sadness, hate, greed, and anger,
Can fill the world with darkness,
That not even a speck of light can break through.
We are an adventurous bunch,
Our hearts, minds, and bodies are full of mysteries.
That nothing beyond this world can ever figure us out,
Even in a gazillion lifetimes.
