Nikki Reynolds Poet Couplet

Unanswered Questions

Questions run through my head with never an answer,
like Lord why can't we just cure cancer

I mean it's not like we aren't trying
Billions of dollars raised, prayers said and people are still dying

Why are there people who choose to kill, 
people who cheat, lie and steal

How can a person beat their own child
when others on earth are so meek and mild

Why is there so much hatred all around
and not nearly as much love to be found

Some people cant have children and I try to understand
but what I don't is why an evil child molester can

Why are there places where millions are starving to death
Why are there babies born addicted to meth

I know it's wrong to question God this way
I try to stop but my mind is plagued

I ask for forgiveness each and every night
Still it continues...it's a constant fight

These questions and thoughts torture my mind
I look for answers that are impossible to find

We think we have a friend in someone just to find we were wrong
finding out they were against us all along

There is so much wrong in this world we live in
We may not be the culprit but it causes us to sin

I pray a lot every day and night, 
praying for others to win the fight

Whatever their troubles are, 
I pray from God they will never stray far

It seems to me that evil is winning
These thoughts in my head are constantly spinning

It wears me out to worry so,
sometimes to the point that I can barely go

I try to put all these questions to rest
The answers are nowhere so I know it's best
