I Still Wonder
I wonder why we are dying to live,
When we are all living to die.
I wonder why we are trying see,
When there is absolutely nothing in sight.
I wonder why we are trying to give,
When no one is ready to receive.
I wonder why we are dying to fight,
When we are all fighting to be defeated.
I wonder why we are craving to love,
When all they will do is to hate.
I wonder why we are flying abroad,
When many of our people over there are prisoners and well fed slaves.
I wonder the essence of religion and politics,
When the end products are intolerance and conflict.
I wonder the gap between the rich and the poor,
When at the end both would be committed to the Mother Earth.
Even deep in my heart hear,
I still wonder.
