Justice For All

If there is anything I want besides love, it is justice Over the years, I have sacrificed a lot for justice Not at all for revenge, but for truth and acknowledgement Not so much for what happened to me, but for others Losses came in waves, there were a lot in the process But, I have no regrets to haunt me or linger in my mind Because, I still stand for justice with new things today It has been my employment and also prominent in my life If I can bring anyone relief from wrong doing, I have succeeded In these ongoing days of turmoil throughout the world, I can only pray that justice will be the key to bring peace For it is when we face the truth, we heal 10/31/19 Entry for Anything you want contest.

There is so much injustice in our world today, it does make my blood boil when I see it like on TV, Some people do what they like to others and seem to get away with it. Well written Heidi. Good luck. Tomp
