I don't understand
how this world has become
so full of hate.
I don't understand
how a love of weapons take
precedence over compassion
and love for fellow human beings
who are the victims of violence.
I don't understand
how groups of non believers
can start movements
and promote laws that take
any religious artifact
out of public buildings.
I don't understand
how one nation, under God,
can turn its back on those
who are less fortunate.
And one thing I am really
having a hard time with,
is how there are so many
filled with hate,
who escape every
consequence for their actions,
while one who is a man
of the cloth, who has dedicated
his entire life to God,
can be inflicted with such a
horrifying, fatal disease
as ALS, and doomed
to a horrible, inhumane death.
I don't understand.
I just don't understand.
And it's breaking my heart.
