Who Am I

who am I

to question

the hate

in hearts that truly love


who am I

to chastise

the malice

in souls who really care


who am I

to wonder

how much more joy in this world

there would be

without the horrors

we force upon each other


who am I?

this is an interesting poem because though it should be obvious that we should love each other and not be judgemental, at the same time, if we never questioned, things like the Holocaust would've been even worse, so you pose an interesting question here.

If only our leaders would listen and question, as well.

WE ARE THINKERS AND THOUGH WE DO NOT SPEAK OR JUDGE...WE DO WONDER...AND REMEMBER...THAT HIS WORD SAYS...SWEET AND BITTER WATERS CANNOT FLOW FROM THE SAME FOUNTAIN...EITHER THE WATERS (THE HEART OR THE SOUL) IS SWEET OR BITTER...FOR WHERE THERE IS HIS LIGHT...DARKNESS CANNOT DWELL. AN IMPRESSIVE WORK THAT MAKES ONE CONSIDER THE QUESTION AND COMMENT. DONE WELL AND ENJOYED. THANKS FOR SHARING AND BLESSINGS. JOYCE * HIS INSPIRATIONS

You are very worthy of asking such a question and even more so because you think to ask it. I believe the answer to the question is within your "self." Thank you for sharing this thought-provoking write, Pierre. Love and peace to you,

Regis
