Anger

Because I thought you didn’t care

Because you thought I looked away

Because a life I had was lost

Because no one helped us understand.

Because I was left crying alone

Because you weren’t told the truth,

Because my voice was not heard

Because your voice was taken away.

Because he never really came back

Because you couldn’t make him stay

Because I didn’t know how to be a man

Because you were afraid this isn’t enough.

Because we know all things must end

And because nothing on earth is quite enough.

But because of this cross

And because of this love

I will choose to go on

Because with hope it is too soon to give up.

And we do have a voice

And here is a choice

To live or wait hopeless to the end.
