Start with Love

Bridges crumble to the ground
I hear the shattering of the glass
Grief and panic rule us now
It seemed too true that this peace would last.
-
Where are all my hopes and dreams?
They drifted down the river
I pull out my hair and I scream
While someone whispers…
-
Start with love…
-
I’ve hit rock bottom; the only path is now up
I became the spark to fuel my flame
I’ve found freedom while others remained stuck  
Color doesn’t matter when we bleed the same.
-
Trapped in this toxic cycle
Humanity has lost its way
Evil can’t be escaped through denial
A loving voice emerges to say…
-
Start with love
Break the chains of hate
No deity nor man can decide your fate.
When push comes to shove
All you can rely on is yourself
I’ll be the one to save me from this hell.
