Fear With Ignorance Makes HateA Poem by Marina HartnerSo many things are going wrong on this planet today. But we can't let it beat us. We MUST NOT let it win.A world where darkness always wins Where people drown among their sins Days are black and filled with pain And loss is greater than the gain Millions curl in beds each night While those elsewhere are forced to fight No eyes can close, no soul can rest When screams are silent and oppressed Morning comes with dread and fear The next disaster drawing near Bombs and guns and children raped Horrors that can't be escaped Words are weapons, starting war But who knows what the fighting's for As no one wins and there's no end This chaos is no passing trend Fear with ignorance makes hate Compassion comes when it's too late Blameless groups deemed terrorists Justice now does not exist Extremists shan't control us all In times of need we must stand tall Even when all is bleak and grim We must not stop, we can't give in © 2015 Marina Hartner |
