It isn’t your fault our mine, no. It isn’t our fault but we can choose to do something about it. Brothers and sisters but yet not Bredren!! How did we get here, but yet I’m so glad I’ve come.
It seems we are somewhat inseparable, for I see you are here too. There is so many of you but yet, to me, you now seem to be so few. It is so good to be here, there are times I truly want your best. Though our care is somewhat of a burden to me and leaves my consciousness in unrest.
We are very different aren’t we, though we are ‘same’. There is a chasm between us, let there be no blame. My plight is understood now I know the truth, I only regret it was not from my youth. Sometimes I wanted to be so like you; you seemed to have so much more. This was so wrong, I hope we are both glad, that things will never be the same anymore. Much Respect!!
