SONNET: CAN YOU TELL ME WHY?
~Sonnet: Can you tell me why?~
(English sonnet)
Can you tell me why? Babies everywhere die?
Can you tell me why? This world feeds from hate?
Can you tell me why? We all have to cry?
Can you tell me why? Some can’t find a mate?
Can you tell me why? Sorrow conquers laughter?
Can you tell me why? Some kids are unloved?
Can you tell me why? Men just riches chases after?
Can you tell me why? Some valued no beloved?
Can you tell me why? God most men reject?
Can you tell me why? Sin springs like water?
Can you tell me why? Most lives are wrecked?
Can you tell me why? There’s so much slaughter?
Why? Why? Well, only God knows exactly why?
But sin and lack of love makes this world cry!
