What would I change?
If I had the power to change
anything in the world
what could I possibly pick?
Would I change the double standards:
How men are seen against women
and how society feels?
Would I change the clashing opinions:
How if everyone were able to listen to others,
we might find a solution?
Would I change the world for the helpless:
So those in third worlds and those living on our streets
could have a better life?
Would I change the attraction to the all mighty dollar:
So that not everything was measured
by the pieces of paper in your wallet?
Or would I change the way I see myself?
Would I change the fact:
That I don’t have much confidence,
that I compare myself to every person I see?
Would I change the fact:
That I stick my foot in my mouth
and always feel left out?
Would I change the fact:
That I don’t understand everything
and that I wish I could be smarter?
What would I change?
What would you change?
