Evil

Can we differentiate right from wrong;
separate the good from the bad?
We do our best to just get along;
and separate happy from sad.

Emotions and feelings are storms;
meant to be endured;
thus our characters reformed;
for our future to be insured.

What is evil in God’s mind;
is there some way to be sure?
How in reality is it all defined;
that we can know evil’s cure?

It must be an energy within;
that causes reality to spoil;
no matter how it begins;
that energy comes to a boil.

You may think that it’s true;
it’s from some energy source;
but that just won’t do;
there’s something missing, of course.

There’s a vital energy that’s missing;
without it, we’re just never the same;
so important there’s no way of dismissing;
in God’s image we no longer may claim.

Our survival depends on this energy;
granted, from the Father above;
combining with all; forming synergy;
for evil is the absence of Love.
