In the Darkness

By The Icelander

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

Dark times are many for people, Seldom they see the light side of life. Darkness envolopes the world with war, hate, and personal greed. Few see the light of compassion, forgiveness, and love. Even living without racism is hard to do in the times that we live in. Why hate those who we don't know? Difference between people is what makes all people unique. Race, culture, religion, Some feel threatened by these differences. Instead of fear we should imbrace these diffeneces, For knowledge is the greatest gift man has to offer in the time of darkness.
