Justice

If life itself does have no meaning Pray, tell me, does justice need to come from the divine From that power which is still mystifying From that power which is still in the process of being philosophized Why, see you, I believe that justice should come from ourselves Following the standards we have set ourselves Based on a set of moral values Based on the laws of all societies Of course, we do have to pray for justice Of course, we do have to let the heavens do their part But what of the demoniac nature of man That which causes him to have always evil prevailing in this land What to make of such a man, if not to show him justice Is it not said that humanity is made of two sides One side shines with light, while the other ones rejoices in being sinful Pray, what to make of such an evil man, if not to show him instant justice Some do, in all sorts of evil acts, take pride Others do see in those acts, something so beautiful Pity I these people for they are made of blindness Pretending to be followers of the Great One, they do find joy in sinful activities So, justice does be for me, whatever does will the moral standards Indeed, justice does be for me, the victory of truth Yes, justice does be for me, humanity, living side by side, in peace Justice, does be for me, constant and stable happiness Justice does be for me, the vanquishing of those inner demons Those that make us, to sins, so prone Justice does be for me, the way life reminds us all that God does be somewhere Even if He does seem to be always absent and even inexistent Justice does be for me, the proof of my muse's love for me My muse, my God, my angel, the one giving me company Justice does be, the paths He does clear Justice does be, the tears He does dry Justice does be the way He keeps me smiling Even when the rain is pelting or the desert remains all dry Justice does be the look scary snakes do give me When they try to bite me but cannot, for my heart beats to the rhythms of the sky! Justice, Divine peace Human intervention Justice, the only way to find in this world, peace! Anoucheka Gangabissoon 5 September 2015 For Contest Justice Sponsored by Tammy Reams
