Getting off lightly
Why do humans kill?Taking away the future and will
They can sit in jail
Yet they can still tell a tale
God made us with love and care
So who should take it all away?, clearly wrong and unfair
On this planet we have only one chance
To live, love and dance
Do not crush a spirit that breathes
More sinful and evil than the living believes
Actions of hate and to retaliate
Death in time will come, why rush the date?
The law can only do so much
Never seems to be enough, they have lost their touch
Someone is six feet under, another person is free
I read about this to much, every paper I see
Blood in time dries
The pain of the ones effected does not, do they hear their cries?
From the young to the old
The warmth of life and a death that is very cold
