Maybe
One day
Regardless of race
Regardless of color
Everyone can raise a glass
Propose a toast to one another
Maybe
One day
With minds no longer in the gutter
We can cherish each other’s company
Fellow sisters
Fellow brothers
Maybe
One day
When the spirit’s true
And the flesh willing
Mankind will no longer be conscious of
The mechanics of killing
Maybe
One day
Maybe one day
Just not in this lifetime. O.K?
Cos I want to drown out all you say
Board is set now yet I don’t ‘wanna play
Maybe one day
I can put this jealousy away
Cos am I a liar when I pray?
I’m like a tooth rotting with decay
Yeah maybe one day
I’ll get over this self hate
I can accept what’s on my plate
And realize the hand of fate…
has been rather fair to me
Maybe
One day

Yes, maybe one day in the not so distant future, nice work!
Thanks for reading. Don’t think that any complete peace or understanding is feasible in this world, but here’s to hoping for something & pointing out my own short comings as well. Thanks again, appreciate it.
This one flows nicely down the page and leaves the reader with a lot to ponder.
Thanks Eli, thanks for looking in to that, it leaves me with a lot to ponder as well. Appreciate you reading.
