EVERYONE.live.NOW.

EVERYONE.live.NOW.

A Poem by Mariah

 

i am beautiful.

 

you are beautiful.

 

                        this whole wide world is beautifull.

 

we are loved.

 

we are cared for.

 

we are so, so lucky.

         

 

                  I have the power.

WE HAVE THE POWER.

 

I deserve it.

   you deserve it.

This world needs it.

 

we all have this power, all of us.

 

and its just waiting to be awoken.

                 

                              what do we want out of life?

 

 

 

The money

 The job

The car

Beach-front houses

Her clothes

His smile

 

                       what we really want is happiness.

And the last time I checked,

That is the single thing

Not manufactured

Not processed;

As raw as these words are real

 

 

we can end world hunger,

    stop the violence,

 the discrimination,

we can all live in wealth.

 

                  but it's up to all of us.

 

it's up to me and only me to make me happy.

 

it's up to you and only you to make you happy.

 

                              WE CAN DO THIS.

 

there are no limits

 for you

or for me

 

                  for your best friend

or your worst enemy.

 

                  no one to blame but yourself.

and myself.

 

and for the rest of the world,

 

ITSELF.

 

it's never too late

         there's always more hope

 

or another chance,

 

EVERYONE.

 

LIVE.

 

NOW.

 

<3
