Still

I still believe

In a world of love,

Trust good prevails

As we rise above.

I still believe

In the power of joy,

Trust happiness transforms

As more bliss we deploy.

I still believe

In a culture of kindness,

Trust giving uplifts

As compassion is timeless.

I still believe

In the importance of intention,

Trust thoughts become

As reality is invention.

I still believe

In a time of hope,

Trust humanity shines through

As brotherhood we invoke.

I still believe

In the strength of connection,

Trust together overcomes

As unity is our destination.

I still believe

In a place of peace,

Trust understanding reigns

As contempt we release.

I still believe

In the justice of time,

Trust truth steps forward

As visions align.

I still believe

In a brighter day,

Trust integrity triumphs

As more decency we display.

I still believe

In the impact of words,

Trust they land on target

As this message is heard.
