We will certainly wait
But for how long?
Can you hear the collective gasp?
Can you see the crimson pyres?
Sorry, there is no waiting time
In this game of death!!
How long do we wait?
For better sense to prevail
For wars to end
For children to get a chance
To live their life
How long do we wait?
For the Time that never arrives
Time of peace
Time of love
Time of kinship
How long do we wait?
For the rains
For the barren land
To become green again
For the earth to heal
How long do we need to wait?
For the stars to be visible again
To be able to breathe again
Perhaps sing again
How long do we wait?
For a day without news of abuse
A day with no school shootings
No war or no killings
No rapes or acid attacks
Just how long?
Just how long before we value
Humanity and living
How long before we value
Equality and love
We have been waiting
Far too long
Too too long
To find ourselves
To love ourselves
