  • Okay, I am stuck with this, but I am trying.

    Was born with eyes wide open
    To be prepared for the truth
    No one seemed to care or wanted to offend
    What had happened on the roof

    Time withholds memories in a box
    We crawl, then stand, and eventually walk
    As a rusty key enters an unforgiving lock
    Uttering words before learning to talk

      This is a similar themed piece to one I’ve been trying to write for ages.You’ve done a great job asking question about the decisions we make.
      We both know every action starts with a thought and that’s where the mind comes into play.If we’re fully awake and listening,our minds will see what the consequences of our actions will be.
      I for one try to remember “no harm to any sentient being”, not always easy do.
      I believe if a person’s intentions are good then, regardless of the law or societal norms, their actions are good.

      I’ve preached enough, when all I wanted to say was….great write.
      🙏
