The Key to Life

Alexandra Haman

The Haque

01-08-2004

 

Life is strange

Life is bitter

Living with the knowledge that others suffer

While you are happy

Should make you think

About the way

Life is divided

 

Living in luxury and wealth

Should make you feel guilty

And wonder

How it comes

That all the good things

Are yours

While others have nothing

To live for

While others should pray

To die

Instead of living the life

That was imposed on them

By people who wanted

The best in life for themselves

 

Life should be easy

Life should be honest

Towards all the living on this planet

If honesty was the keyword

To guarantee life

Life would be different

For us all

 

 
Earth, a planet hungry for peace
