We’ve created our own hell
People live it every day As weapons maim and murder Our compassion’s gone astray. Empathy abolished Humanity denied Benevolence’s been beaten Our morals are revised. Extremism ignited Within various religions. Preaching death to others And making it their mission. No longer can we tolerate This horrid lack of judgment Their actions are disgusting Vile and repugnant. We have the strength within us We need only use our words Show kindness in our actions And speak so we’ll be heard. Read to understand Share what you have learned Hold out your hands to others Critical thinking must return. Question what you think is true And learn about new things Freedom in your knowledge Find purpose in your wings.
