For sure nobody knows how far heaven is from earth, even scientists would have had a bloodied nose tryin' to figure that out. But I'm not here to analyze or calculate the distance between those two points, but to share with you the widening difference between the haves and have nots.
As Karl Marx had written in his Communist Manifesto, "The history of all hitherto existing society, is the history of class struggles." That's true, the history of the world was shaped and is being shaped by the clashes or conflicts which arose and is arising between the classes of society --- better known as the Bourgeoisie and the Proletariat. But enough with the history, communism, and facts. My question is, why is it that the haves and have nots couldn't mix well most of the time whether it be on interests, avocations and LOVE. Well, then, let's narrow it down to LOVE. So much with my ad libs. Why is it that there are too many conflicts and problems that arises whenever a pair coming from the two different sides break the norm? I still just couldn't get it. Isn't it true that love knows no boundaries? And just because of this barrier that our world had set up, only few had dared and fewer triumphed. How I wish that everyone in this world, whatever their status quo is, would open their eyes and just follow what is in their heart. I'll just wrap this up by sharing with you a poem that I wrote which is in relevance with what I'm saying right from the start...
COLOR BLIND
Some people's lives are meant to be less from others
Some are more fruitful, while some are mediocres
Some are meant to be in black and white...
While some are in colors with all the hues in sight.
It just happens to be that I'm on the lesser side
That's reality and I have to face it with might.
But you, you're blessed with everything to behold,
Living happily in the kaleidoscopic world.
It just hurts me cause the world had set its own realities,
Realities which gives me all the insecurities,
Insecurities because it says we can't be together,
Which just means that I'm gonna suffer forever.
But I know that love has its different view.
It has made a difference in the experiences of a few;
It has no boundaries and if we'll look through love's eyes...
It sees in color, but it doesn't mind!
I myself could only speak in failure. How I wish that LOVE would just conquer us all and break every barrier that comes along the way.

that is an amazing poem you wrote. i love it.
and i couldn't agree more. Our world is driven by impersonal profiteering machines. Love is a word of the past.
If we're all here on earth, why do we make it so difficult for one another.
"We try to make a heaven on earth. Instead we create our hell."

Love?
I think it is the most abused word in the dictionary. Wish people would stop mis-interpreting fleeting feelings as "love".
