Heartless

How could we eat

And savor sweet fruits

While others beg

For a piece of stale bread

How could we live

In enchanting castles

Where roofs protect us

From the mighty rain

While others roam

From street to street,

Looking for a cardboard box

To sleep under.

How could we sleep

In our comfortable beds

Made with the finest silk

The softest pillows

While others sleep

On concrete streets

Stomped by moving feet

How could we bathe

In pure clean waters

With perfumed soaps

While others plea

For a drop of fresh water

How could we wear

Opulent clothes

Adorned with sparkling jewels

While others shiver

From the wind's cold blows

How could we murder

Kill innocent lives

Deprive families from fathers

And increase the rate

Of wailing mothers

Innocent little orphans

And deceased corpses

That quench death's thirst

For blood

How could we laugh

When our eyes lie upon

Tears shed by angels

How could we be...

How ... Could... We .. Be

So heartless?
