Lack of compassion filled my heart with fear
forced my eyes shut and made me play nursery rhymes
about god in my ears
Lack of compassion saw nights of terror
endless days filled with worry
and impending horror with the setting of the sun
But love and compassion - that's a different story
Love and compassion now made me laugh and take pity
on shadows that screamed and howled all around me
Love and compassion made me reach out and guide
the lost and forlorn to safety and rest
But love and compassion now give me the strength
to ask - if good or bad, is its actual intent....
