Not today will I say
anything
I need to hide
from
my soul
I will only say
what we
need to know
In a way
that
blesses
all this world
Who too listens
really
needs to know.

You don’t know me
you’ve never seen me
But
I know you
Your heart is
evil
filled with hate
taking advantage of
the weak, the vulnerable
those looking
for
someone great
But
Unfortunately
all they get is
what’s good for you
what lines your pockets
and
those you bought
those that will participate
in your killing schemes, your lies
your hate.
You don’t know me
I wish
I didn’t know you.

My heart, my thoughts and prayers
are with Ukraine and their strong heroic people
in this battle
they are courageously fighting.

My heart aches
Seeing armies invade, taking land
Not theirs
Hearing cries, bombs
Flashing
Deadly lights
The world reels
As despots steal countries
Not theirs
They don’t care
If lives are lost, hearts broken
Life torn apart
Seek a way to stop
This annexation of what is
Not theirs
Please God
Please show me
Show me how today.
