the passion of a true believer shines forth here
a plea for not only souls taken away but souls left here to carry
the deeds of those before us....it has been way, far too much of the hate, the demons and the crime
powerful!!

There has been hatred in this world since its inception. God gaave us commandments not suggestions so that this hatred would stop, but we heed Him not. And so we go on, race against race, color against color, neighbor against neighbor and even with families. You have written a poerful poem. Victor

Outstanding write my friend, I was truly blessed by your emotional and heartfelt words...it is a shame that there is so much hatred in our society today, when Christ has freely given us the best gift of all if only we would accept it! His love in our hearts so that we may share with others and eventually it will be His love and spirit that will take us home...great write my friend!

It is a sad state that we live within the realities of crime, hate, and prejudice, there are so many victims that the roots go back millions of years, a sad cycle of continued violence.....The world can only be saved by the Savior...
