Life is baffling

30 June 2010, Wednesday 
I'm baffled
I'm bewildered
I'm confounded
I'm stumped!!!
Sometimes I marvel
I'm bowled over about countless things in life 
I'm astonished why when we talk of love very few listen
But when we talk of hate we have everyone's rapt attention
I'm amazed why when someone is feeling down and blue
And these poor souls don't know what to do
Our words of comfort seem so few
I'm perplexed why we are happy to listen to lies
Quicker than we will listen to the truth
Albeit we are witnesses to the pain
And have heard their whimpers and cries.
I'm mystified why we pick our friends and envelope them in love
And never extend our hands to others
I'm stunned why when things seem right
We think it is something awesome and great we have done
But when things go wrong, we want to blame Allah
I'm baffled
I'm bewildered
I'm confounded
I'm stumped!!!
