How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of being and ideal grace.
I love thee to the level of every day's
Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light.
I love thee freely, as men strive for right.
I love thee purely, as they turn from praise.
I love thee with the passion put to use
In my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith.
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
With my lost saints — I love with the breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my life! — and, if God choose,
I shall but love thee better after death.

Where is the world heading to?
I ask myself but wat am i to do---
The answer seems puzzling
I'm filled with ideas that are totally confusing;
Where are love ,truth and peace?
Without which joy would definitely cease.
I see only Hatred , lies and war,
With all these ,we can never reach the stars.
I wish they would stop
But all my dreams are nothing but a drop
In this mighty ocean of corruption;
I am unable to make a decision
As to what could bring an end
And Make us all friends.
I soon realised
The answer was right by my side
There stood a poor girl nearby
I knew that one thing would make her heart fly
So I gave her a smile
Which she'll remember till she dies
So let's Give each other a smile---
And make this world a place to live and not die.

Instead of asking someone to do your homework for you, why not ask for topics that you could write the poem on ? And ask for some good descriptive words that would go well in a poem.

Shakespeare already wrote one starting with a question: "Shall I compare thee to a summer day?"
Browning began a poem with, "How do I love thee?"
I realize you want something original, but far be it for me to try to outdo these great literary masters: they should provide you with what you need.

Who am I, and why am I here?
I never chose my birth and my life is unclear.
Those that bore me and gave me my name,
know not why I am puzzled nor understand my claim.
That I have been found guilty, of what crime I know not,
but the punishment is death and my life is the cell.
Until the bell tolls I shall live in my hell.

I doubt anyone would do your homework for you. I'll only do the question for you though.
What mysteries does the world hold?

Will my homework be done
By another's daughter or son?
Shall I quit asking their mother
Or will they even bother.
