the way of the world

this is not the way of the world.

all this pain is not part of the plan.

and all the loneliness. No.

we are not made to be this way.

we are not made to fear each other.

we are not made to live in empty rooms or in filled-up rooms.

we are not made to lose our hope, our ability to dream and love.

i look at us and i want to love us all.

i look at us and i want to be a god

to take us all from the hand

to hold us in my arms

to say that it is all going to be ok.

i look at us and i want to show us how beautiful we are

how blessed how strong.

we are one.

in love.

this is the way of the world.
