Hoping
to find the world’s perfect view.
Here
I am, again, frustrated for what I see.
This
is not the best place that a man should be.
Moving
on with my journey, my feet kept on going.
Seeking
for places that might possess what my vision has been longing.
But
again to my dismay, I wasn’t able to find
The
exact beauty that has been created by my mind.
Everything
looks completely terrible,
A
product of man’s irresponsible behavior.
Nothing
has been left for me to find
Just
like the old haven that humanity left behind.
Being
sorry for myself was all that I can do.
I
thought of nothing but grieve while longing for you.
Our
dearest sweet mother, who nurtured us all,
Is
now home for chaos and maiden of fools.
I
am so angry with my fellow humans
For
our beautiful home is now part of history’s murals.
If
only I can change things on my own,
Then
everything would be as perfect as yesterday’s home.
Destiny
knocked me for what I have just thought
Is
the best thing that change-makers should have fought.
This
is our planet and we should fight for this
Before
everything becomes part of a useless piece.
From
there, I stand with courage I endured;
From
there, I strive for my passion is pure.
Sure,
I wasn’t able to find the right answer from my quest.
But
realize that the solution lies within my heart’s treasure chest.About the Author:
