Pray For Mankind

Better to have loved than lost

Or not at all

Depends on who you ask, I say

Lets ask God

Are you there God, can you hear me?

Or do you forsake me

Why are we here, anyone truly know?

Showing off shiny things for all to see

Was that Gods intent

I don't think so

Do you think you're exempt

I don't think so

He is there and watching us today

So pray for mankind

As we've all lost our way

So pray for mankind

We need them to stay

"Better to have loved than lost

Lets ask God"

That first stanza caught me. I like how you asked questions that made us realize how curious we all are of our existence. I spotted a little grammatical error and some missing punctuations but overall, it's a great write... Good job

wonderful poem, I agree I think man kind has lost their way.

I'm not too sure about that beginning, it is puzzling. I'm not sure if you meant to write it that way to change up the original saying or, if you misunderstood the original saying. "It is better to have loved and lost then to never have loved at all." So because of that, I'm not really digging on it at first glance, also where I do believe that mankind is definitely coming off the tracks, I don't believe prayers would change much. I don't think they would hurt, but I'm a big believer in change coming from action and a permeation of consciousness that is opposed to the purveying or, more popular one. I do commend you on writing about something that matters, and so, for you in my eyes are someone who is trying to bring about change through your writing. We need more people with voices and the courage to go against what is taking place.

Good write, It is inspirational in that our youths can become conscious of God. We are God's creation. He gave us a free spirit to choose . He don't force himself on us - his laws and precepts...Mankind do as they are please, but you are right we need to pray for them and your ending in the poem give us a wake up call to do so. Thank you. this is a decent poem.
