Blown Away By the Wind
Must we fight and lash out at each other?
Spinning a blanket of ‘negativity’,
One that never comforts, with gaping holes
Must we carry on ‘blaming’ one side, then the other?
When both sides have done wrong
- Division growing deeper -
While corruption is out of control
Pulling strings all along, instigating…
- No Accountability -
Must we let it mold our minds?
Tell us what to think about the other side?
When it turns out being the person right next to you
- A fellow neighbor -
Slowly words, ‘Love thy neighbor’ are lost…
Destroyed, going, gone…
- As if blown away by the wind -
