In Africa, a child is born,
In poverty; disease.
No place for him to lay his head,
in a land where hope has ceased.
In England, a husband weeps;
for cancer took his wife.
He watched it creep within her veins,
as it stole her precious life.
In America, where addiction;
drowns a lost young soul.
Creates false illusions,
as darkness takes its toll.
In war, emotions rage;
battling in disgrace.
Separating reality,
while we eliminate our race.
Within, a cure for effect;
that ravishes the earth.
Flickering ray of hope,
placed at time of birth.
It flickers in the darkness,
creates a shadow of the soul.
When kindled it illuminates,
creating wisdom to grow.
God's face shines in the light,
that leads us through the dark.
He awaits in our desolate shells,
to initiate the spark.
