PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

humanity we are giving up early

we live to die in suits and ties

where we end up lying in the ground

another frown, another heart left unspoken

when we won't let the One who's whole

fix us when we are broken

give another chance, give another try

even when our failures keep going by and by

we've missed the point, we've lost the way

concentrating hard on what to say

rather than how to grow, we seem to go

further and further away from home

and no one knows because we don't show

we've mastered death and we haven't seen

it's causing us more pain than we believe

our silent screams turn to be smiling faces

we are persuasive and it never seems to end

humanity we are giving up

i am giving up again

but we need to stand

Lord, help us stand
