Why does everyone seek to make a name for themselves ? So many questions yet no one can harbor the true meaning of any emotion of any real answer to these questions. It seems like we're slowly drifting away. We cause things that do harm to ourselves yet we like to do them drink, smoke you name it. People doing drugs they know it'll kill them sooner or later but its always about " now, whats going on today ". Sometimes People say life life like the world will end tomorrow or something along those lines. Then that means they want to do as many crazy stuff they can even though the world wont end. its kinda .....how would you say " ignorant " im all up for having a good time. but why put yourself at risk ? Ive gone to raves where ive seen women and men sweat because of extacy they know it causes harm, not only does it dehydrate you but it slowly eats away at your kidneys ....why do it ? apparently it makes them feel great but later in life. oh boy you'll regret it.
Anyways onto a better topic. im a writer if you cant tell. I've taken several poetry classes and won several awards so im going to lay down a new poem just for you guys =O
I hear the screams and shouts of dying men and women. The crys for help, for hope but all dims to and end. I open my eyes to find a world not of my own. Gunfire, Bombs the world wrapped in flames. I watched as women, children were put before the rifles.
i slowly closed my eyes hopeing to hide amongst the rubble. Hearing my name i awoke, Men grabbing at me. Their faces blurred by masks and armor. As i sat before the fireing line. I asked " why .......why must it be this way " They looked to one another questioning their actions. Persecution through religion, through beliefs and culture. I looked up to them to find a pistol aimed to my face. " where i may go, no one will never know..." i whispered. As i closed my eyes i awaited the Inevitable. I never knew why wars were fought this way. I'll never understand them within a lifetime. With one loud gunshot my life had ended. Finding myself amongst friends, family. At peace, yet no one answered the riddle.
Question/Riddle : If we accept all cutures and Religions why do we still persecute them, why do we cause wars and use religion and Beliefs as a scapegoat ? If you boil down wars to the bone, they are all Based around religion and beliefs. We dont like somebody we take them to war. we kill without a second thought. That is why War on Earth will never come to end. And peace will never find a beginning.
