The Magic Penny

Let love be our currency,
Let ideas be our goods of trade,
Let us demand a better world,
That businesses can supply.

Let all our transactions,
Be based on mutual respect and affection,
We all deserve the best,
But have we seen what's the best?

Is it money?
And fancy toys?
How long will we remain
Little girls and Boys?

Is it power?
A sense of control?
Or eternal happiness?
Or someone we can hold?

Is it perfection?
Or is it redemption?

We are creating,
A new beginning,
Everyday is a new innings.
Past mistakes are just  lessons we've been learning.

Don't label anyone a failure,
Coz labels and tags are not permanent,
But they have a way of defining our mind,
And slowly dragging ourselves behind.

Out of the darkness inside us,
We will find the light,
And burn it bright,
Light up every corner inside.
