Something Beautiful

Religious beliefs do tear us apart
Ethnicity tries to divide the lot
Even culture fails in its unity job

One says Jesus came then, to do his part
Muhammad came and won battles he fought
While thinkers are building stones like they’re Bob

There’s something unique in every man’s heart
But we all pretend like we know it not
We try to open doors that have no knob

We all know the truth but we attempt to dart
But something beautiful cannot be bought
Neither can it be hidden from the mob

Even love failed those great men in the books
There’s nothing beautiful except its looks.
