A wish
Why must everything be as it is
Why must sickness be
Why must pain be
Why must sorrow be
In a world where nothing has meaning
Why must the innocent suffer
Why must the weak be hurt
It is said that
It is better to not have existed
Than to live and see evil
Yet it is better to live and enjoy your vanities
Than be dead and have nothing
If all is meaningless
Then why must people suffer this world
I wish I could take all the pain
All the sorrow
The sickness
The hate
Onto myself
So only I suffer the pain of the world
That all else may live their lives
Free of all that hurts us
Free of despair
Free to hope
And free to love
.....Why can't I save the world?
