The Better Life

I weep for those who have no joy, no peace, no hope.

I weep for those who are depressed, lonely and whose only means to an end is a gun or a rope.

I weep for those who aren’t mentally well.

I weep for those who constantly live and breathe in a “living hell.”

I weep for those who deal with stress and strife.

For soon they’ll have the better life.

I weep for those who have lost a father, mother, husband, wife, daughter or son.

For now they know true sorrow, now their never- ending sadness has begun.

I weep for those who don’t know what to do or where to go.

I weep for those who want to be loved by someone, but they just get tossed aside with their esteem and emotions feeling low.

I weep for those who lost their lives because of people who hate our country, sweet land of liberty.

They are gone, but are now forever free.

I weep for those who will never know the meaning of THEIR life.

But I know soon, they WILL have the better life.
