Beneath It All

My poem to humanity.

Hanging off
the edge of the world,
we need kindness
more than we will ever know.
Peace will never be among us
if we remain cold & ruthless.
It takes more strength
to know about what truly matters
and we'll never know
if we don't try.
Even without guns,
we deserve to be heard
and it won't happen
if we're starved of oxygen.
It is ever so beautiful
if only we begin to listen,
then the answers
will always be found.
Who are we truly beneath our skin?
Beyond the spirit of innocence.
I want to beauty
to be called "crazy",
yet still hope to be normal.
I have tried to make sense of it,
but not sure I could exist
any other way.
Perhaps we are broken,
but beneath it all,
we found the truth.

The world is getting worse every day! Great poem though, I enjoyed the read, it had much truth and feeling in it. :)

Allot of things some humans do make one almost give up on humanity.
We have rapist these days, murderers, animal crulty, verbal and pshyical abuse.
How can people do such things and call themselves human?

We do need kindness, and really caring people. People who want to help others who want to understand others. There are few of these people these days unfortunetly.
But if we all seach down into our souls, some may have to search harder than others haha, but point is we should all find our humanity, after all we are all humans.
Great poem again hun.
