The Perfect world

I tried to think of how to write this,
I realized it's a futile as trying to catch fleas,
So I simply offer my expression,
And let if flow free of congestion.

I recently stopped thinking for a moment,
And the result was a thought so potent,
For the silence brought to my attention,
An idea not of my predilection,
I thought of how some people suffer,
And how for some life only gets rougher,
I spared a thought for the other side of the coin,
And how some wealth is built on others ruin,
I thought briefly about forced prostitution,
And how it is so ignored by our constitution,
I thought it odd too how easily these words rhyme,
And how about such issues most politicians turn mime,
I reflected a moment about abandoned street children,
And how we take for granted some of the chances given,
I was chilled by the brief thought of human trafficking,
And how this somehow boils down to poor governing,
It's ridiculous how some countries biggest problems are obesity,
And on the same planet wars break out from lacking necessities,
It's amazing how diverse life on this planet gets,
Least surprising the animals people keep as pets,
To whom more love affection and kindness is shown,
In comparison to other people almost something to mourn.

Surprisingly, I have no problem with the way the world is,
Because all I ever control is how I live,
Though What makes me most sad in middle of this stress,
Is some people don't ever get to know they can live beyond this mess,
Because I'm just the same as everyone else,
I chose not where to be born as an address,
I'm just glad that here good or bad, anything is possible,
Dreams are achievable, and everyone is capable.
