You died for us all,
so we could be free.
The saddest thing is,
we were too blind to see.

Our lives didn't change,
mistakes stayed the same.
We gave up the chance,
to eradicate our blame.

You gave us free will,
that we didn't always nurture.
It was used and abused,
detrimental to our future.

We now live in sad times,
where the God-less hold court.
It could have been different,
had we used some forethought.
