Linus Okechukwu - Do we really care?

See how beautiful the new day looks,

staring moodly at the sky, I weep,

our world is not good for anybody

yet we desire to live forever.

Greediness has beclouded our sense of reasoning,

Selfishness reeked in our thoughts,

Togetherness has gone stale,

and love, love has been intertwined in the bloody stream of hatred
and the world-weiry river of poverty.


Our world is surely coming to an end,

abruptly will the end appear.

We must learn to love and care,
for love abounds in our hearts.
Caring and loving brings joy to the world-weary faces of the oppressed,
and that makes us sleep in the boundless stream of togetherness,
then we shall glow like a stream of flowing metal.

Loving and caring will make the world a haven of serenity and brotherhood.
