Notes About The Poem
I know not everybody in this world is evil,so please dont take that the wrong way.
It's some of the things I see in life just scare me! So I feel all I can do is pray. 

Please Don'T Condemn Me

Please don't condemn me For whom or how I pray I sadly pray for the souls of all others That I come across every day I pray wholeheartedly with the feelings, That are felt from within my heart Also for those who think of themselves above me As they arrogantly rip my heart apart This world has become such an evil place Cloked in nothing but selfish greed So to those I can reach,I try to do one thing And that is plant a new spiritual seed So please don't condemn me For whom or how I pray I sadly pray for the souls of all others Before my life here is to be taken away

Wow..that is really beautiful. It gave me the chills. If you can, read my "Don't Understand" poem and tell me what I'm supposed to do? It's far down my list...Thanks for adding my poem to your fav list! Holly Moore
