Whatever Contest - Free Verse - 15 Line Count

When to withhold or
forespeak; why do we
fear decisions are
the questions we must
ask for ourselves.

Violence erupts.
Decisions are faced
every day; the
tendency to speak
gets us in trouble.

The world needs to change.
Let's get back to hope.
Where there's faith, there's hope,
Where there's hope, there's trust.
Let's work together.
