But Where Does This Evil Come From?

But where does this evil come from? Merely a hole, It is a total privation of goodness It is simply a lack of goodness, An emptiness within a soul Because of the weakness of the will of His creations Our love becomes misguided Obsessed with the suffering of others We all have elements of evil within us We are Changeable We grow and mature And we must die Everything needs balance Evil is necessary for there to be good Otherwise, What is good but a concept?
