Humanities

Humanities... simply all there is
The grace of us all... the sins we hide
To another we never fail to please
How is it... there be a need to die?

Shall death come ever so eventually
Yet the need for all else ever so necessary
Why have we grown so regardlessly?
Simply for the sake of holy humanity

Enough rules I knew to live by
Yet I barely have enough for myself
Laws in accordance to abide
When... in time of humanities did I fell?

Need not money to matter even
Simply to one another and nevermore
And hell have I my reasons...
Humanity remains... all there is to recall

To grace us with... shall never will
Of sins we need commit shall be forgiven
Grievances from one to another never fails
Simply the need for another be made broken
