Our wold that is getting so cold almost on a daily
Basis worries my irked mind bugged by shock
Stupified by the strangeness of mankind to its kindred
I have often bemoaned the pain i catch in people's faces
Thined by fear and fatigue drowning their worries
In cold bottles of beer that they hope will give them a
Loop and take away their frustrations leaving them much
Better though this is merely an illusion that never had worked
Those who drink only waste energy and kill themselves silently
There is nothing in the bottle except frustration and death
Smilling like a harlot only prepared to devour its victim
We can do so much better if we can sow seeds of friendship
That goes beyond getting returns from our gestures
A meaningful relationship that can build and foster
Genuine love which shall make hearts and minds to
Mingle and prepare for the cementing of hearts and minds
Rebuilding a fragmented, shattered and battered world
Providing a home for a better nursery for our kids
So that they can become more stabble and more independent
Huh did i say Independent, interdependence so that our cold
World can become unfreezed and made warm by the smiles
That shine forth from us radiating those once cold cheeks
You and i can unfreeze our world and make it hotter
Much brighter and more inviting provided we sow love
Agape a missing factor that we seem to be longing anew
