I OBSERVED

I observed the World
Through a child’s eyes
My voice was quiet
My inside was upset
I questioned the intent
Of what the world put in the subtext
Wondered – did I want to attend?

I observed the world
Through the eyes of a teen
Sometimes I raised my voice
But mostly I did not want to be seen
Confusion and pressure
I did not like what society brought
Just a simple soul
I stumbled with my thoughts

I observed the world
Through the eyes of a young mother
My soul was bleeding – my heart cried
I recognized how we treated each other
My voice started to roar
My will shaped a sword
I wanted to be a part of 
A beautiful and heart based new world

Now I observe the world
Through the eyes of a grown-up child
I do love the joy and laughter
That comes from inside
I don’t like the way we have chosen to live
I don’t understand
That with open eyes
We fight and we kill

I observe the world
And the child within me cries
To love one another
That’s the optimal life
How could it be
That we never can see
What’s good for you
Is also good for me

I observe the world
And my heart speak so loud
It’s not about being rich, mighty and proud
It’s not about you and neither me
It’s all about us
The whole World
THE WE!
