Love Abates
Hanging on hope, acknowledging
I wade along through empty promises
Away, farther and farther, I drift
Outside realms of delusions I’ve seen
And like a child hold to
Words ever spoken in faith, august
By a Father who loves unconditionally
Each person regardless of hue,
Origin, creed, ethnicity, religion…
All, differences imposed, willfully
Inciting division, one generation to next
And like dominoes, each falls …
Fear, animosity thrive as love abates
