Hate To Think



I hate to think the worst,
Because it might not be,
I hate to think the best,
Because its just not that easy,
Finding no answer,
Left with this question,
Nothing is clear,
Surrounded in confusion,
As wisdom feels,
More pain than ignorance,
Will ever know,
Both to suffer in a sense,
With  a vision, of change,
To open the mind,
Living each day to leave,
The one before behind,..........BAD-Mc<3
