Why? Oh Why? - A 12 Year Old's Questions
–AMP
Why? Oh Why?
is this world so cruel
to the ones in seed,
and to the ones in need
Why? Oh Why?
is this place a war
fights for money,
but none for life
Why? Oh Why?
is this life so sad
killing the seeds which are yet to bloom,
killing the beauty of flowers which bloom
Why? Oh Why?
tell me my God
why is this place,
a horror for all
This was the poem I had aforementioned in my previous post. It was the rant of someone who felt angered, filled with pain at how this world is turning out. This poem was written when I was 12, I remember having this sudden urge to write about pain and war. Why? I don’t really know but I believe it has a reason. History has taught us our mistakes and yet we repeat it again and again. For how long are we going to be silent? How long are we not going to react? Is it because we’ve forgotten that it is thy brothers and sisters? That we’re all nothing without each other? This is the twenty first century yet we humans are back at it again; restless, greedy to acquire more yet not looking back to see who we’ve lost, what we’ve become and who we we’re. Was it all worth it? let’s hope so if not change is obligatory. Wishing everyone lots of love and wings of warmth.
