‘A poem about the world, the terror and wars that go through it and not just the happy
moments.
A poem, a wish of escape.’
To dream of a place of escape,
A third level If you must say.
To run away from the problems the world is encompassed within.
To hope for a peaceful sift running between.
A hope for understanding,
Not resentment.
Just plain hope.
To make the world better,
To stop the war,
The anger coursing through.
To have the sky burst with colours
Not the earth.
To have the roads stained with the drawings of children,
And not their own blood.
Hope to see the children smiling again,
And not a sheet of pure white innocence.
To dream of a world where everything’s right.
A world where one wants to keep on living.
Soldiers dying,
Women crying.
There has to be a stop to this monstrosity we live in.
