SIMILAR HIGHER POWER
People are born into the world with shining eyes and gleaming hearts
Our experiences shape us into the adults we become
One persons' pain is anothers' triumph
Heartache on one side is glory on the other
The sun shines brightly over Chicago as tornados rip through Dallas
All humans are under the same sun and moon
Yes so diverse in our experiences
What makes us hate one another so?
Why can't we all love the same God or Higher Power?
Why do our beliefs become better than others?
The driving force that is called life burns strong in some
Fizzles out in others
The veil between life and death is so thin at times
What are they trying to tell us?
Human nature is not the way
Evil prevades too strong in humans
Love must prevail in our hearts
Sink into our minds
Let it control our actions
Let it subside the fear of failure and demise
Life is so shirt, so short we are on this earth
Immense is the universe and we are just one planet among so many
Like players in an eternal chess game
Playing out our lives, battling for check mate
Give up the game and play like children
