Why?

I watch the sun rise in the sky

I ask the question why?

Why is there hatred in this world?

Why are there starving boys and  girls?

Why is there addiction everywhere?

Why are there people not willing to share?

Why is there prejudice and fear?

Why are there people not willing to be near?

I plead, please tell me why

Then in my head I hear a simple reply

You must experience the bad to know the good

You must do the right just as you know you should

You should love yourself and everyone

You must spread hope and humanity until your life is done

You must do to others why you want them to do to you

You must sustain in all you do

All these things you embrace

And the world will assure you

Everything will fall into place

-Nirmohi.
