What I Want

What I want
By Michelle Morris

What I want is peace
Peace for humanity
Peace in our hearts and minds
Peace within our souls and lives

What I want is freedom
Freedom for every life
Freedom to choose our paths
Freedom to enjoy our time

What I want is joy
Joy for everyone 
Joy for every moment 
Joy for future generations

What I want is belief
Belief in ourselves and others
Belief in what we can achieve together
Belief in all that we can do with love

What I want is contentment
Contentment for each soul
Contentment for our legacies 
Contentment for our world
