What if people took the time
to watch the setting sun
Or listen to the gentle sound

Or hold back words they want to say
if they know it only hurts

What if people chose to give

Or lend a hand to those in need
when times become too great

What if people felt the pain
from those of us who've lost
Or those who've given all they have
no matter what the cost

What if people lived each day
as if it were their last
Or looked towards the future
to overcome their past

What if people walked a mile

Or thought about how others feel
instead of just themselves

What if people read these lines
and took each word to heart
