Missing It

While the world unravels and people turn a blind eye; Clearly the reasons for despondency cant be denied. Thievery and greed, broken hearts and unrighteous wars; Has left the world oozing in unhealable sores. We think we are leaving our mark when really its just a stain; Its no wonder God looks down on his own creation with disdain. They say its appointed man once to live and only once to die; Then we will clearly see what we look like mirrored in God's eyes. Perhaps then we will truly see ourselves as a creation in disgrace; And realize when we had the chance we should have accepted his grace.
