LIFE

Let me try to explain what I see and through a terrifying night was made clear,

Our world’s injustice and religious battles have added to confusion and fear,

Throughout the ages our purpose of life was programmed and shaped with scripture,

We put trust into the hands of government and religion that painted a pretty picture,

As we continue day in and day out, we can see how this picture loses its charm,

We notice how our economic materialistic nature can cause so much harm,

We are confused because this life can seem so fantastic and grand,

As we live our lives contradicting the love that love showed with a caring hand,

Putting great power into the names and stories from which loves message was sent,

Observe your feelings and listen to those around and abroad as they live and vent,

The majority wants nothing more then to live in harmony and peace showing love,

First we must admit this current life is not the way for all under the sky above,

This is happening, even though our conscious thoughts are unaware of our action,

New generations are learning to dismiss the stories and share love to gain traction,

As I see it, religions have been the medium for the divine’s message of love,

We see the beauty through the ugly, forget the medium as it leads to push and shove,

Imagine the world as we know it, all of a sudden came to a sudden death,

Only ten thousand or so humans were left,

Empathize and feel, put yourself in their shoes and think what would I do,

You would learn from past mistakes and start freshly only sharing love as was taught

through the divines message for me and you,

Why must the toughest lessons be taught from rock bottom on our knees,

Read this not through my eyes but through the love of my spirit if you please.
