The Greater Crime

Is it a greater crime to thieve?

Or, is it, to deceive?


Which is worse, the hatred that being bred,

Or is it the blood that’s being shed?


Is it, the wealth that’s being plundered?

Or is it, to allow, children die of hunger?


Is it, to let go of things that mattered,

Or is it, to let your dreams be shattered?


Is it, to simply let things be?

And to choose to ignore what you see?


Or is it, to, not make it a priority,

To, achieve, to the best of our ability.


Go ahead think which, is the greater crime,

Or is this thought, to you, not even worth a dime??

  6. you have asked so many questions that each of us ask at one point of time. But I am afraid, there are no answers; or we are scared to face these questions. :-)
