Want or Will

by Bruce Alan Humphrey — Read all 55 poems by Bruce Alan Humphrey

Do we know the answers?

Monday, July 15, 2024

How does a hungering child wait in silence before being fed?

How do a starving people continue to live?

How does a race of people have the will to fight perpetual torment?

 

How does a person needing friendship able to move forward?

How does a soul longing for love continue on?

How does a human thirsting for loyalty keep showing confidence?

 

How does an individual looking for trust wait for that one day?

How does a person who wants the truth wait against the lies?

How do people who are being oppressed endure an onslaught?

 

How do people use their hearts to help someone off the ground?

How do societies put aside differences to help the needy?

How do nations rise against evil and look skyward to help?

 

How do we know there is an answer?

How can a people realize the answer is not there?

How can a world know the future is never what it could be?

So many questions that are so hard to answer,my favourite line in your very interesting poem is ;"How do people use their hearts to help someone off the ground?' I really like this line and I dare to attempt an answer, I would guess that empathy is the trigger that makes one's heart reach out to help another up🕊

A lot of questions. Some answered, some not.

My experience in living in many places is that people are inherently good and helpful. But animosities arrive from lack of knowledge and fear of the unknown leading to all kinds of problems that are difficult to solve. Some just give up on helping all together and stick themselves.

Fortunately, as a severely disabled person was able to travel and live in five different parts of the United States whenever I was in need of help, strangers came forth and help me unconditionally. I have done the same whenever I could. We have it in us to be kind and generous.
