Analysis of Doubts
Will you hear my cry
as it echoes in the confines of my soul
Does fear hold me silent
mute and deaf to the pains around me
Struggles fought against fought
by my brothers of light, by my sisters of grace
Against hunger, poverty
placed before them by the unseen hands of fate
Will the tears I shed be their only comfort
Brave souls of this world will you answer the call of the light?
Share the plenty to give all of us succor and peace.
Take upon our shoulders the needs of those around us
and by giving we will receive our needs in abundance.
May the Light of Truth guide you.
