Imagine if everyone smiled at one another
As they would a baby in the arms of his mother
Imagine if cost was not consequential
Imagine if racism meant to love unconditionally, equally
Imagine if fear was just a word less used
Instead of a word abused
Imagine if your heart only ached with love
And never harbored repugnance
Imagine if selfishness
Wasn’t self righteous, but benevolent
Imagine if billboards and advertisements didn’t falsify happiness
Imagine all imaginable,
War would not exist….

I enjoy the contrast; I find balance somewhere in between by imagining the heart only aching with love to be unleashed and increased - great write xoxo
