Why

As humans, we could care for each other
But why?
As humans, we could become completely selfless
But why?
As humans, we could combine cultures to stop ignorance
But why?
As humans, we could truly, deeply learn how to honestly love
But why?

As humans, we can become powerful
Why not?
As humans, we can become the rulers of all
Why not?
As humans, we can separate those different from us
Why not?
As humans, we can build our communities solely on hatred
Why?

As humans, we choose to take the wrong path
Always.
As humans, we think we are better than any
Always
As humans, we do not care for the life of another
Always
As humans, no other human life is more important than ours.
Always.
