Prayer

HOLD myself
Up to the light
Errors I make
TO SEE
TO FIX
TO FIGHT
HUMAN
Imperfect and such, I find
Is hard TO uphold
THE URGE TO
Curse the sky
WHY????????????
I ask GOD and myself
WHY
Are we here?
To love
You put it so plainly
The message is clear
"The way and the light"
I love that phrase
What does it mean?
For real
The way you intended it for US to hear
To interpret
War over religion
Why does that take place
I.N.T.E.R.P.R.E.T.
Children die
Why in your Name?
Our Home
Our Mother Earth
You put us here
Beautiful Paradise
Magnificent
Beauty
Unlimited mystery
Variety Limitless
Space and gravity
The delicate balance of life
Human
Animal
Plant
LIFE
Every generation
It seems
Gets worse
Destruction in the Minds
Of Men
Women
Who fight
Who love
Who die Everyday
For this cause
The catalyst is Man
GREED
GOVERNMENT
Equates in my mind WAR
IT takes us all
Every human
That it affects
We can't give back what it takes
The shattered minds
Of the men war makes
Takes who they are
Creates fear
Confusion
Memories that can't be erased
Poof
Yet we continue
To self destruct
People are dying
Do we care?
As a people
Universal
ALL humans
The only Mammals
He made to care
