Answer Me

My eyes veered to the sky with a blank stare.

I look for answers that's not even there.

I question who's the blame for much 

hurt and shame. 

Families torn apart. Threw away Love

to start. Then came hatred to fill people's

bed. Put'n all sorts of poop in their heads.

All lives matter, they quick to say. But to

me and others, it's just a dream.

Everyday I awake to a nightmare it may

seem. Life can't be like this forever.

there is always tomorrow for change.   

Where are the role models with 

positive views?  It would help for the

little ones when filling big shoes.

yes, all lives do matter...and it all begins with family....and within family...when the love becomes hate...the family falls apart...
