Promise and Hope

A poem about how I feel this world has become.

Promise & Hope

Silenced are the voices striving to speak truth & righteousness,
Drowned out by venomous tongues spewing malice & callousness.
Blind are eyes turned to a land ravaged with wickedness & despair,
Acts of perversion & treachery publicly showcased without a care.

Oh precious lord, how we need thee.

Minds of youths corrupted by false & twisted indoctrination,
Manipulated into believing change can happen to gender classification.
Teachings once fundamental in institutes of education obliterated,
The book of truth & wisdom once treasured, now banned & hated.

Oh precious lord, how we need thee.

Alas, times ahead may become too difficult for us to cope,
Yet I still hold onto that bright glimmer of promise & hope.
To you oh lord, I owe my all for your son who you unselfishly sacrificed,
The truth, way, & life I shall always trust in is my savior, Jesus Christ.
