* I Wonder?

Just being here walking the earth,
is confusing when one does not the
their meaning of belonging to it.

Feeling like an alien from another
planet, planted here, just existing.
Watching everything, everyone,

Not understanding the meaning of,
the evilness, death, destruction, hatred.
Innocent killings everyday of people, pets.

Man hating man because of their color.
Women hating women for the same reasons.
Children killing because they see it all around.

No more love, for the fellow man, that's to easy.
The poor, helpless, innocent ones dying daily,
because of our pride, ignorance, selfishness.

Just being here walking the earth, 
is confusing when all we do is hate and kill.
No wonder no one feels a sense of belonging.

I wonder? If God in whatever religion you are,
watches, and sheds tears for the way it has all
turned out when it was never to be this way?!
