Humanity

I Am Tired
Of Being Betrayed
By Those
Closest To Me

Hatred
Builds Within
In Which I Have
No Control

I Can Not Trust
The Next Man

My Mind
Is Overwhelmed

My Spirit Is Broken
Once Again
Yet Failed
To Be Seen,
Acknowledged
Or Recognized

Because
In Man's Mind
All Is Well
With Self

It Is You Lord
I Now Turn
In This Dark Hour

Lift Me Up
Into The Light

Save Me
From Humanity
