Compassion For The Devastated



Compassion for the devastated
Salvation they all need.
Deprivation is not discriminate
Toward the victims of this world.
Their lacking needs
Consumed by grief
Condemned to face turmoil.
Inconsolable feeling of solitude
Living in the pain of tragic
Devastation.
"how much pain can a person bare?"
All that can be done to help
The wounded is bandages, and doctors care.
No one can fix the broken hearts
Of the poor souls who lost their loved ones.
Ask ourselves will there be hope if
We face the same as them?
Will someone be there to
Hold our hand and help us get through
Our bereavement?
