This World



This world is meant for you and me:
For all the ocean and the seven seas
For all humanity and life
For a husband and a wife
For the poor and the rich
For the honest and a stitch
For the living and the dead
For the one who go hungry and those who are fed
But this world does not have alot of trust or peace
That's why lately This world hasn't been meant for you or me
