Imagine, if the world could just be one big happy family! Not realistic, right? Sometimes, we love people but can dislike their behavior or actions. People's negative actions can lead and escalate into so many issues that ONE cannot simply handle. So, why not try to reverse is all. With so much occurring in the world, I would love to dedicate this poem to individuals in our nation and worldwide to rock down with the peace signs and vibes!

Can the globe escape the treacherous paths of the dark?

Into the luminous light

Where peace lies ahead

But it cries for help without an utter sound

Instead it still its spread wings and influence people around

However, everything seems to be the opposite

Violence, hatred, the crazy regulations implemented

That is definite!

What happened to the peaceful protests and non-violence acts?

That our leaders, MLK, Gandhi, Nelson Mandela, who fought bravely

And who surely had our backs.

Day to day and night by night,

The world is suffering and dreading in agony,

Dear Mama, can't seem to cope and whisper to her son,

"Baby, it will be alright."

She is worried if her young baby would gone

Instantly, the law enforcement or anyone could target him

Suddenly, he becomes the next innocent and lifeless victim

Over fifty-shotgun pellets

Where lies the bloodstain on our young generation's hands

Because their forbidden and painful past, some won't understand

There are too many of our young women

All shades of beautiful melanin

Who never intentionally meant to "give it up"?

It is sacred to them, yet they are taken advantage of

By men who do not really care

Yet, misuse these precious women

To become something made of

One may never comprehend

How he or she feels

The constant pain is unbearable

It almost seems real

He or she may laugh or play

But it is kept to a bare minimum

Because, "Hey, there goes pain lurking around the corner,"

To ensure that he or she crawls back and become a heavy mourner

It becomes darker, powerful, and over-consuming

Taking every inch of life and having me to question,

"God, WHY?!"

Just let me go, let me go

I am done and am completely through!

What's the point?

I see no hope, so I'll smoke my life away

With a simple "joint"

As you see, these situations are not all,

But just a few

Open your eyes to see a different view

There lies a horizon of peace miles and miles ahead

Along with its other siblings,

Love, joy, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness (Galatians 5:22)

These components are one of a kind

That will help us to commune in one place

And create unity, knowing it would be safe

And we would finally all leave this world

With peaceful vibes only!
