Taking the path of wrongdoing
#WritcoPoemPrompt76
Why do people do bad things? Answer this question by writing a poem.
Here's a poem exploring the complexities of human actions:
In the depths of human hearts, a mix of emotions sway
A dance of light and darkness, every single day
A choice, a step, a decision, can lead us far astray
From the path of love and kindness, to a darker way
Some act out of pain and hurt, a cry for help and aid
A misguided search for solace, in a world that's often frayed
Others, lost in their own fears, lash out with angry might
Unaware of the harm they cause, in the dark of night
Some are driven by desires, for power, wealth, or fame
A relentless pursuit of more, that fuels their every claim
But in the end, it's emptiness, that echoes through their soul
A hunger that's never satisfied, a hole that's never whole
Yet, amidst the darkness, a spark of hope remains
A chance for redemption, a new path to regain
For we are complex beings, with the capacity to choose
To learn, to grow, to heal, and to break through
So let's not judge too quickly, or condemn with ease
For in the depths of human hearts, a struggle ceases
Instead, let's offer kindness, compassion, and love
To help guide each other, to rise above.
This poem explores the complexities of human actions, acknowledging that people do bad things for various reasons, including pain, fear, desires, and a search for solace. However, it also offers hope for redemption, growth, and the possibility of choosing a different path.
