Poetry: Suffering

You can spend your life asking why?
Blaming Goverments, blaming God
and nothing will ever change.
You can turn your eyes and look away
and nothing will ever change.
You can say they only have themselves to blmae
and nothing will ever change.
You can say that it's just their fate
and nothing will ever change.
Or you can vow to make a difference,
however small it may be.
Eleviate some suffering,
you may find it sets you free.
You could give a little money,
or you could give a lot.
You could give up some time,
it can mean a real lot.
You could get your hands dirty.
You could heal someones wounds.
You could talk to someone who is lonely.
Help a nieghbour near you.
You could start a major charity,
petition government for change.
Or you could spend your life asking why?
And nothing will ever change.
Suffering becomes more bearable
when the individual steps in.
So become part of the solution,
let the revolution begin.

    and that is why, I've chosen to,
    hide out upon

    by Chris Tyner

    Mercy Mercy, why are you sleeping?
    Dreaming so deeply;
    deaf to the cries.
    Mercy, why are you weeping?
    Justify your tears
    Dry

    There is no end to suffering
    and so I cannot rest
    my mind is forced to wander
    along the frozen paths of death.

    by Jason Hinds-King

    I live my life in pain's ugly lair
    Physical agony, endless
    Mental Anguish. Just close my eyes
    Relentless, cruel and consuming
