We must love,
the way Christ loved us.
We must come together.
We must love our neighbor.
Yet, to most people,
those words have now,
lost it's flavor.
They have become,
like a clanging gong -
a cleshe if you will.
Is the power of division,
stronger than,
the power of forgiveness?
Certainly not
Still, how can we forgive,
if all we want is division,
let alone not know Christ.
Many claim they want equality.
Many claim they give equality.
Many claim they love everyone,
when they only want,
equality, for themselves.
Those who supposedly,
give equality,
only choose,
who they want to be equal with.
Those who claim,
to love everyone,
deep down only love their own, 'kind'.
Oh how I weep for the earth.
So I ask,
"How can we forgive".
Where is the responsibility?
I hear blame,
but where is the accountabilty?
It hurts to know,
that what brings us together,
is the hatred towards others.
Yet, with no shame,
The whole world is watching,
and begins to follow.

- Comment from author about the poem: The power of love and forgiveness is so much stronger than the power of division. Still, it is so hard to see that, because in this world people are fueled with hatred. They think love and forgiveness is weakness. It is sad. We must Love our neighbor, the way how Christ first loved us. Forgive and God will forgive us. Persistence is key
