Where is the love
In the world today?
So much anger and hatred
People's hearts, being lead astray.

There is no love
Or for that matter, comfort,
The hand of human kindness
Always a cause for distort.

Too much killing
Infection with deadly disease,
People tend to forget passion
Others realise it with ease.

Where is the love?
What happened to the compassion?
What about our children?
It seems to late to take action.

We have to
Practise what we preach,
Learn to live and love
To turn the other cheek.

I can't listen to the song "Where Is The Love" by Black Eyed Peas without crying. That's where I got this inspiration from.
