Time to Reflect

By Paullyn Nicole Soriano

How can we live a world like this?

We always take money and cultivation as basis

Wherein our action removes us from humanity

That leads to indifference and replaces compassion and empathy

As you can see our land is continuously dying

Not because on our existence but on our own doings

Everywhere you go you can see conflicts and wars

Wherein millions of people die and some were tortured in bars

Houses and buildings were bombarded

By the terrorist thrown their attack anticipated

Everyone was afraid that it could be their last

Wherein some children were poisoned by the smokes and gas

The Armors and tanks that they used

Causes some alliance to fuse

That result to greater division

From what they believe and their religion

Suffering is everywhere and it is unstoppable

And the agonies of the people who are infected are unforgettable

Why do we keep continuing for progress?

Why do we keep searching answers on sciences?

Is not enough that we come this far?

From the past year we had already progress and soar

But this progression leads us into factions

Factions that causes barrier in our communication

Our deeds and actions that result to misunderstanding

Misunderstanding that lessen the love for every human being

Love that replaces by the greed

To obtain power, attention, and heed.

Hearing all this makes my heart melt

I do not know what the proper way of feeling to felt

One of the reasons that make our society unhappy and weary

Not even knowing, we already killing our humanity.

Let us now stop and reflect

Let us stop the conflicts and bloodshed

Let us all unite and bring back peace and harmony

And gave hope to those people who are in pain and misery.
