Benevolence

With the hollow sounds that have shaped our time,
The world churns for tomorrow and longs for flow of the divine.
The sun still rises with hopes of grace
Benevolence has left without a trace

Man moves forward hooked to his desires
Ignoring the fruits for his soul he should acquire,
Wretched and deceived they hide their face,
Benevolence has left without a trace

There were days when man had loved
Never to doubt the message sent from above,
But now those teaching have departed in haste
Benevolence has left without a trace

When life was precious and wars refrained
And modesty was never rare to pertain
Those times of charity are all in haze
Benevolence has left without a trace

In times of greed and sovereignty
Man beheads another for certainty,
Life remains endangered, survival a race
Benevolence has left without a trace

Now the only thing we carry is what we portray
And hope to hold those values that never lead us astray
Life is nothing but a time lapse in days,
Benevolence should've remain in multitudes of trace
