Change

The world is bleak 

Our future is dim, 

At least that is what we seem to believe

What happened to the Wonder?

What happened to the faith?

What happened to us?

Are we so lost in a bleak reality we forget

We once believed we could change anything

That we could make a difference

Are we just programs?

Following a set path

NO

WE ARE MORE 

WE CAN CHANGE,

But not by ourselves 

But only through ourselves

Like ripples in a pond 

a pebble can have such an impact

By changing our view could we return?

From this bleak world filled with dread and pessimism

Into a future that does not crush us

With all its rules

can one view reach the world 

and change it?

Yes?

No?

Maybe?

If we returned 

would we be happy

or afraid of the new

will we crawl back to what we know 

or embrace the new 

Why are we afraid?

Why can't we change?

We are stubborn 

Why?

Wtihout stubborness would we be able to change

For the better?

Change the world view 

By changing your own

Embrace the new 

Forget the sorrow, the dread, 

and move forward

It may seem like an uphill battle,

But its just a little further to the top.

Never forget that

A little more a little extra

never give up 

Perservere

Change the future 

By changing 

You
