Some people don't know the wheat from the chaff,
because they are completely blinded,
their minds are filled with anger
and they are not even honest with themselves.
When someone does a good job,
is difficult for others to understand,
when someone is genuinely happy,
should joy be taken away from him immediately?
Where is this crazy world really going?
what else has real value,
what makes anyone else squirm,
what else can we prioritise?
If it's not genuine love,
if the goodness of the heart is an orphan,
is then a more worthwhile disease,
on the soul, or is it all a mistake?
But ... I feel, I know,
there is hope for all,
I believe, I trust, because I may,
even the stone in your chest thaws with time.
To share love and happiness, to be grateful,
Respect, Adopted and to help,
are actions that weave strong threads,
virtues that will help the world to endure.
