Are There Days Without Darkness

Do others often ask themselves, 
" Are there days without darkness...
when another storm shows fierceness?
Has hope dimmed for selfish reasons? "

And the living pay little attention to events,
although they grin and appear to be perplexed;
and they miss every sign of the crucial times:
how can they not be aware? That's so absurd!  

Are there days without darkness?
The evil ones embrace dark ideals
to accomplish a task linked to death,
to control and suppress each breath!

Anybody who holds the absolute power, 
shouldn't neglect the masses with needs;
money is squandered on wars that drives:
brother against brother, sister against sister! 

Lost is the concept of fairness, of humanness;
they silence the one who's forced to rebels against
the iron hand from the throne of false atonement:
they have built a dungeon fit for raving lions!

Are there days without darkness,
with limpid skies of unfaded blueness?
Are the paved roads free of thistles:
where all are safe from vile threats?
