The Human story
When guns become toys
And innocence stolen,
When violence is a big joy
And kindness forgotten,
The tears will be very warm;
When money controls minds
No charity and no mercy,
When souls become blind
Not feeling Eternity,
The prayers will be very loud;
When love is only physical
And hearts like stones,
When the sky becomes unusual
And nature forever gone,
The story…… must be told.
