A Time Will Come


A Time Will Come

A time will come
when you will question
where you have been
and where you are going

A time will come
when you will question
who you truly are
and what you stand for

A time will come
when you shout out to the world
what you believe
and what disgusts you

A time will come
when you need to be there
for there are so many
hurts in this world

A time will come
when you must reach
way down deep inside
to discover who you truly are

A time will come
when you must seek out
those who think and believe like you
for it is truly important

A time will come
when you must forgive yourself
love and encourage yourself
 believe in who you have become

A time will come
when your voice matters
others will listen and hear
for your words matter

What if???



What if ???


The world were happy all of the time
things weren't always so difficult
we were loved by all
we liked ourselves
things weren't so complicated
what if???


There were no social classes
all races got along
presidential elections
didn't have to come around
our nation was in a healthier place
what if???


We all had peace of mind
we all were well educated
we could eat whatever we wanted
all of the time
we didn't have to age
we didn't have to exercise
we all had thinner and healthier bodies
what if???


If we took the time to
 read more books
we all fell in love with poetry
didn't watch any television
educated our minds
didn't have the internet
got to know our neighbors
what if???


Compliments were a way of life
a hug or a kiss was always
welcomed
a smile stayed on our faces
we got along with others
we didn't keep our heads
gazing down
when passing a complete stranger
what if???


 We could say how we felt 
all of the time
if there was no judgement
we held compassion 
towards our fellow man
if we could lead by example
in all that we say and do
what if???


Ask yourself
what if???
Where does it lead you?
