MY HEART KNOWS

I sit and think – useless thoughts I guess,

I think of the world and all its mess!

All the hatred that seems to be in men,

And I wonder if it will ever end –

So many evil souls – wishing us all death

Hating even our last breath –

May God forgive them!

 

I sit and think – my heart has little desire!

I looked around, and no one I admire

Wasteful thoughts, needing better things

Out of men, but only sorrow it brings –

But in the end my heart knows

Life is filled with worries and woes –

May God forgive them!  

 

I sit and think – my head I scratch!

Useless thoughts – none of them match,

Only a broken heart filled with pain,

Looking back at all that have been slain!

I cry out to God – silence it seems

 

“We need justice!” A life of dreams –

May I forgive men as well!
