The World is in the Shadows

It’s not shining

It’s not believable

It’s unworthy

It’s a sham

It has been scammed

It has been bled

The world is crumbling

without the people

The people who are smiling

and not beguiling

The world is watching

But now it feels like it’s hiding

Lurking in the corners

Waiting to rob someone

Sneaking a peek

at the innocent

Trying to trick the wisdom

out of humanity

someone into dead ends

Or take the goodness

out of the sunshine

Turn off the light of the stars

Cover the lighthouses

And blind the seekers

The world is in the shadows

But we can renew

the energy of our ancestors

and

Bring back

the magnificence of freedom

and hope

and kindness

and dignity

with integrity

We were created for that purpose

Bring the world out of the shadows

It doesn’t belong there

Where is your light?
