Love they say <br />The meaning of life <br />Nothing more or less <br />Than yesterday's strife <br />Yet still they shelter <br />A heart so cold <br />That once it's touched <br />The soul is sold <br />They care not for pariahs <br />Nor pray for the victim <br />Waiting for the messiah <br />That leads by the blade <br />Yet still they say <br />In uncertainty and pride <br />Celestial is their way <br />And this world must abide <br />So I ask but this <br />If that is true <br />What makes you so sure? <br />That your ‘god' has chosen you?<br /><br />Rebecca Pepper<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/chosen-13/
