For A Moment

For a moment...
I hold the world in my hands,
As I observe endangered lands.
We end war, but start all over,
We're drunk with power, never sobered.

For a moment I see us fight
Lives are taken, I see our fright.
Some are spared, but I don't see thanks,
*Only guns and army tanks.

For a moment I see the greed,
You say money is all you need.
Is this now a loveless world?
*Has all the hatred yet unfurled?

For a moment I see things clear,
I need to treasure what I hold dear.
Humanity is stopping progression,
Today there's only violent aggression.

For that moment I start to pray,
That we will see another day.
From appreciation I dare not drift,
For everyday is a valuable gift.

Hey, I'd just like to explain the stars(asterix) I put those in places where I didn't really like the wording, or maybe the arrangement of the words. I think this could still use work, I\'m just not able to figure out how to fix them... Am I the only one who sees something wrong? Anyone have any ideas? I love criticism of alll types (mostly the constructive ones ofcourse:P) so please leave a comment if you can. I usually return the favour as soon as I can. so no worries there. Thanks :)
