Is Fear All You Hear?

Is Fear All You Hear?

 

Speed past your neighbour while turning a blind eye

Not stopping knowing he’s still got miles to walk

All you do is drive by

Compassion, love for your fellow human was all just talk

 

Walking by a starving fellow creature

while you have spare money in your pocket

but out of fear, you turn a blind eye to the universal teacher

and speed by like a rocket

 

Turning a blind eye to suffering because you fear

Is Fear all You Hear?

What have we become?

 

We see suffering and pain every day

Yet, most just simply blindly ignore and walk away

Whether it’s an animal or a fellow creature

Ignorance is all we feature

 

What is going to become of us?

Who will be there for you when you cry out?

When you scream, cry and create a fuss

What will you do when no help is about?

 

We reap what we sow

To ignore our fellow humans’ cries for help, all because of fear

Even though we know

What makes you think that anyone will be there for you even though help is near?

 

Turning a blind eye to suffering because you fear

Is Fear all You Hear?

What have we become?

 

I will stand proud, live my life the true, honest and compassionate way

I will walk my life path by heart, and if harm comes my way,

at least I will know my good deeds saved lives, warmed hearts,  I’m not made of clay

and was worth my short earthly stay.
