World In Chaos Spread Your Love

Only God can change the world now
Mankind has just gone too far
As we can clearly see 
Throughout history
Man just can't get on
With so much hate and suffering
Love for our fellow brothers and sisters 
Is far gone
Tolerance good will and understanding
Are replaced by guns and bombs
And the innocent suffer most.

Greed sex and power are never enough
For the wealthy few in their ivory towers
While so many dwell in the gutter
Their voices go unheard
Although they in their desperation
Have so much to utter.

Our beautiful planet is being destroyed
It's for everyone not just a certain wealthy few
I find it immoral and disgusting
That people actually own mountains
And everything within their view.

Our world is like a poisoned flower
Slowly whithering away
The putrid stench of decay
Gets stronger every single day.
I hear those voices unheard
I see the tears in a terrified child's eyes
And hear the mothers stricken by grief
Primal cries.

Oh how I wish I could change the world
Not for myself
As much as everyone else
My dream would be to make everyone equal
Have real justice peace and lasting love
Like God has told us will happen
By divine intervention from above,

I may not be able to change the whole world
But the immediate world around me 
By spreading my love with equal respect and concern for everyone
No matter who they be
If only everyone took the time and wanted to
What a better place this place would be
This world belongs to everyone
Including you and me.

The trouble is we don't all think the same
Some want peace and others want war
Propaganda and lies fed to nations
Through the media false religion and TV
And a fickle blinded society
Dictating  and demanding what to we should be 
And our material goals and even how we must look
To fit into society
People conform and follow
Like sheep
Then when things go wrong
They are bitter and weep.

Many just turn away from what's going on out here
They don't care they are ok
Their hearts as cold as ice
Until it concerns them
Then the cold winds bite.

Man has not only lost his way
Buy forgot
We need to live in harmony with nature
Striking a balance
Or we'll lose the lot.

Satan is the real ruler of this evil world
But not now for long
He is roaming the earth like a roaring lion
Causing as much destruction as possible
Know time for him is nearly up
And his existence almost gone.

Only then will we have everlasting peace and true love
Just as God planned
And mankind will finally live as one
And walk together forever
Hand in hand.

Spread your love everyday.

History has proven that we haven't changed, we have always and will always, seek money and power over the poor and the weak... it doesn't make it right, but it is our proclivity and praying for that to change hasn't worked yet and likely never will... action is called as well as God's mercy .

Hi Emile. You're right about he history,'Power and greed, but in more recent times it has got worse. Seeking power and greed,'The love of money', seem to have become the main priority in life for a lot of people. We have more choice. but many have no choice at all. Only God can save us. he soon will. best wishes. Pete.

Thank you Alexis, I always sensed you had a good heart and was that kind of giving unselfish person. if only we had more like you the world would be a better place. I also sense a very intelligent person, with their eyes open, who sees the world many have been blinded to. Thank you so much for your kind comments. take good care best wishes. Pete.

This is extremely interesting Peter, I hope and wait for peace to prevail and satan plans to fall through. The lines os profoundly beautiful. People can never think the same, I think our prayer to God is to please the mind of our people...........A.M.

Thank yu so much Afolabi. Satan has a short time left and he knows it. that's why we are seeing so many earth quakes and disasters, hate and war in the world. Soon, we will see things never seen before, a final war against evil, after which, we finally will have peace and real love and justice for all. no more pain or suffering. death will be no more. best wishes. Pete.

Thank you so much Casarah. love the name by the way. Yes I'm fed up with all the hate too. You sound a nice person, Your eyes are open, but many are still blind. We might be able to change the world, but the small piece around us, it doesn't take much, everything from just a warm smile to another on passing, or helping someone in need. We all can if we want to, there's good in everyone, we just need to take the time and effort to bring it out, and let it shine. thank you so much. take good care. warm best wishes. Pete.
