Why?

Humanity's greatest failure.

           Why?

As I grow older,
I think more on these
things, and I wonder...

           Why?

If the "King of Kings,"
the savior of humanity,
the one who loves us
unconditionally,
says "love on another,"
why don't we?

            Why?

If He who made the
supreme sacrifice
for us, asks only
that we follow His way,
and do unto others,
why can't we?

            Why?
