The Future Land Poem by Mariah O'Brien

Open your eyes
Look around, see that your world isn't perfect.
It's bound and lives off of suffering lies
Don't look away Open them
See that even on your doorstep
Your little beloved world is in chaos
Listen to me
I'm screaming in your covered ears
Hear those above me that live in fear
Listen to them
The greedy cheers of yesterday
Is the start of many tears today
That will be the end of tomorrow
Unlock your soul
Defy God and all His glory
We are not perfect in His world
Open your eyes
Uncover your soul
Use your heart
Stand up to those that put you down.
The world isn't perfect.
But, take my hand
Let's turn this forsaken Earth
Into the Future's Paradise Land.
