Somehow when we are young, <br />Fear and Hate invade our souls. <br />Their roots grow strong within us. <br /> <br />Together and Alone <br />Images control our life. <br />They create our world. <br /> <br />Our lives become <br />So isolated, so soon. <br />The evil is obvious. <br /> <br />Maybe we become sensitive <br />To the world's pain, <br />Maybe it's ours. <br /> <br />Hope becomes the answer. <br />And within the same, <br />We begin to believe it. <br /> <br />Still searching, <br />Our experience shines. <br />Quietly we follow the signs. <br /> <br />Finally love <br />Envelops us all, <br />A world reunion.<br /><br />Sandra Osborne<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/seven-chapters/
