Tried Retried Poem by Jasjiv Singh

Tried Retried



together we go to a common place
unsure of our fates that lie ahead
we've been last in our every race
lost on every path we tried to tread

now we wander for a better shelter
far from the thoughts which made us cry
i could feel the hearts when i closely held her
she wanted more to go away from the lie

the world had not let us live on our own
that's the price we paid for being one
different religions was with which hatred sown
we were stretched to our limits, forced to run

hypocrites when they say they've changed
pretending to be something they're not
in the process it's us who got blamed
for the shame their inadequacies brought

help us O lord, we come in your protection
leading the way for others with lives messed
because we know you never do any selection
and everyone's equal and will feel blessed

If only everyone was this considerate and humane, Jasjiv. Read 'Diverse Holiday' by Angie Mae. You've got to. Regards, Gina.
