The Battle of Sin

Sometimes I cry in my sleep at night,
The world is so confused, it's not right.

Babies dying no one cares,
Hunger, poverty everywhere.

People kill without a thought,
Diseases with cures that can be bought.

Some buy drugs that they don't need,
Others do without, what does that mean?

Children growing up too fast,
No time to learn about their past.

People all around the world shout,
"There is no Freedom help us out"

We fight wars we never win,
The battle is here, It's name is Sin.

This poem expressing the pain of the world today the thought of it's existence really can break hearts yet we must move on with the thought of hope and love, this was well thought out poem on what we deal with on a day to day basis.

its good i like these ideas. what can be done about hunger though? i ask this because its the most basic thing we need. also, why this money? why must we have it to live? I also think you mean the world as in the people on it are confused, right? just trying to get it straight :)

1st question) When government pays farmers not to grow crops, and we the people accept it rather than giving it (the food) to the hungry. When people don't take it upon themselves to help a fellowman. When we read the Bible an feel that is enough. Then nothing can be done for the hungry.2nd question) I could go indepth on this but it's doesn't have to be about money. It's about the heart and how you use it to benefit others. Everyone can think of something they could do to make this world a better place. But how many will actually do something? 3rd) Yes the people in the world are confused. The world contains the people. The world is made up of livivg things (plants, trees,ect...)but cannot be confused (the physical planet cannot be confused) It can be destroyed by the people that are confused. Aza

Nicely done, you pull me in to your concern, and your right the battle is here, and the need of prayer is clear. thanks for sharing.

Poetry comes nearer to vital truth than history.
