Why?

You were given a piece of peace
Then I watched you slay a thousand dreams
In your wake you hold hope ransom
why?

The depravity that sits at your feet
You would rather pet than kick or beat
All I want is to understand
why?

It doesn't work well if it works at all
I sit watching the sand rise and fall
As you confess freedom is a religious pipe dream
why?

The one who gave you the mind to doubt
Is the only one who can lead you out
Yet you sit in the forest of confusion hanging from limbs of delusion
why?

If its for freedom that he set us free
Why are you so bound in your understanding
Why do you find love so confounding
Why is the man on the tree not astounding
Why does hostility trump humility

Why would you rather be caught up in "Me" than lost and found in he..truly free, yes free indeed.
