Relief

I am a seed in this fertile soil of youthfulness, a
Part,
to this increasing, fervent hunt for an embrace of
Love.
I look towards a changing world. A consistent
Brightness,
and a continued reason to share real, hearty
Laughter
among, people. And for nations to radiate with
Peace,
in the innermost crevices of their pained hearts.
Love,
will exist again. Wiping away brows that once
Crammed
painful memories with poverty and lack, with
Anger,
and death offerings. Instead of a broken
Hope,
there will be mended dreams among us all,
Tolerance,
in those days when war-torn nations would see great
Relief
not from benevolent supplies of bigger nations
Giving
food items. But relief of an eventual wipe to all
Pain.
A world where motherhood would not be a
Curse,
when learning will not be an opportunity for a few.
I will be part of a world when we
shall build dreams and realize
them whole again and again.
