A Tainted Beauty
Everyday I look at the world
and everyday I realise its beauty
the beauty of its people
of its landscapes
of its cultures.
And yet everyday
that beauty is destroyed
piece by piece
its people
by war
its landscapes
by pollution
its cultures
by extremism
and so I find the world to be
a tainted beauty
but a beauty none the less.
Do you know who Anne Frank
Do you know who Anne Frank is? If you don't please do a little research. Even after all the atrocities she faced, dying in a concentration camp and facing hardship after hardship she still believed that humans were naturally good. If she didn't loose faith in humanity we shouldn't either. You are one person, but one person CAN make a difference.
Well written, I enjoyed this piece. It made me stop and think and that is what great writing does.
Long days and pleasant nights

Thanks for the comment!
Of course I know who Anne Frank is! She was a inspirational person always seeing good in the world :) Of course one person can make a difference but I do believe it can be either positive or negative to the world (for example the likes of Anne Frank or Martin Luther King as opposed to Stalin or Hitler etc.) though I would argue that most people provide positivity to the world so I know not to loose my faith in humanity just yet. Glad you enjoyed reading it!
