Shall We Know

by FireFly - Libra

Little do we know-
Sometimes you find yourself alone-
Raising your voice for others to hear-
Only, no one is picking up the telephone-

Little Do we Know-
We walk through the vastness-
Empty handed and withdrawn-
From the love we have abandoned-

Little do we know-
Our own home is forgotten-
As we are tangled in our greedy melees-
And from our time of birth-
We have done nothing in return-
To give back to our Mother Earth-

Little do we allow ourselves to know-
As our eyes of deceit-
Are inherited from those who are unaware-
About the women and children who have been murdered-
Or those left to die, by the hypocrite hands of people-
Who claim to have a history of the deepest of despairs-

Shall we know or ever care?
