Sacrifice
May 28, 2007

Home in the Valley of Darkness.

Too many problems,
Not a day goes by,
Where I don't wish
People would just...
Get along.
So many people,
So many problems,
Not enough solutions.
What can I say? What can I do?
There's not much you can do
To put things to rights.
Yes, we try, but yes, we fail,
And honestly? I'm a little
Sick.
Sick of people doing things
Just for themselves.
Sick of the selfish nature,
The idea that
'Someone else can handle it'.
Sick of the apathy,
Ignorance,
Hypocrisy.
You can say, 'Let someone else
Handle it, just this once.'
But
Who else will do it?
Would you sacrifice yourself?
Would you die on a cross?
Be shot for justice?
Take a bullet for a stranger?
Would you hate life,
To make another's life better?
Where do we go from here?
Where do we go
From a world of Insanity?
To the other side of Despair?
Honor? Courage?
Outdated concepts?
Too many questions.
Too many problems.
Not enough solutions.
