Why Do We

Why Do We Stand Aside When We See Someone in Need Is it Hard for Our Hearts to Understand or Our Eyes to Believe That its One of Our Kind That Needs a Lending Hand Being That it Might Be a Homeless Person or One Who Fought for the Freedom of this Land Why Do We Stand Aside When Someone Struggles or Falls down Is it Hard for Us to Reach out to Them and Lift Them off the Ground Just an Offer of a Hand Can Bring a Smile to a Face That Endures Unlimited Sadness Knowing in this Life Not Every One Has Experience the Meaning of Happiness Why Do We Stand Aside When Someone Is Assaulted or Bullied for No Reason Is it Hard for Us to React Cause Our Hearts Are as Cold as the Winter Season Just One Split Second Can Change the Direction of the Full Intent of What Was to Be So Just Remember If May be Someone You Don't Know or maybe You or Me Why Do We Stand Aside and Be Judgmental to Others Who Differ from Us Is it Hard to Put Away the Hate So Love and Understanding Can Turn into Trust Instead of Stares and Whispers That Can Destroy Ones Emotions and Feelings We Should Understand We to Go Through Life Changing Uncontrolled Dealings Why Do We Stand Aside I Guess We Will Never Understand That We Are All of Gods Children That Live upon His Promise Land
