Injustice

I was witness to a series of grave injustices
From confessions left unheard and unspoken
To a child who screams and was never loved
Starving in a land of wealth or abundance
A truth unlearned because heart are broken
To allow this we must've been blinded by spite
For every child deserves enough love and life


“When I give food to the poor, they call me a saint. When I ask why the poor have no food, they call me a communist.”  Dom Helder Camara
