I'm sitting here watching the rain fall from sky
And my mind wanders back to the old question why
Why do people expect something when they perform a good deed
Why isn't more being done for those less fortunate, the one's who are in need
Why aren't families as close now as they were back in the day
Why is it the older we get, the more we're stuck in our ways
Why do people want to bring you down, when you start having success
Why is our government and our legal system still a mess
Why does it take times of hardship and tragedy, to bring us together
Why is love so hard to stay in, what happened to always and forever
Why do we teach our kids what's right, but still do what we teach them is wrong
Why do kids know less in school, but know the words to all of the songs
We can hear the passion behind the many important questions this poem mentions. They definitely spark off some compelling thoughts.
Thank you for sharing!
