The Miracle of Me and You

politicstimemortality

They ask for them

Every day.

You hear the call,

To cure cancer,

End the war,

Prevent hunger,

Bring happiness

To the world.

What would I do,

If it were true,

Or you?

Do you believe

In miracles?

And if you do

How would we know

They had happened,

When so much

Manipulation occurs.

It would need to be

A really big one,

To bring about change

For all to see,

And agree.

But then, what would

Be the point of life,

Should pain and suffering be

Accounted for

Without the need for

Any effort.

And what use

Curiosity,

If important things

Were taken away.

Choice of outcomes

Removed from our hands.

No need for strategic

Alliance,

Collaboration

Or back to the future plans.

How can we live

Without the fear

Of failure,

To keep us

On the right track.

Reaching out

For better,

Looking for different ways

To bring the

Good times back.

Maybe we need

To agree,

We are the agents

And there truly is

Only one miracle

Worth a candle.

The grandest one of all,

The hardest one to call,

The miracle of me and you.

And it is my guess,

Whatever else

You pray for,

That will have to do.
