A Reaction to Human Nature

I often despair at the state of the universe
Since people do not care at all
Out of despair my tone will always be terse
This is the result of sheer and bitter gall.
I witness the complexities of human behaviour every day,
People who cannot and never will change their ways.
I cease to pay attention to what people think
Though there are some I will always love
Henceforth my despair will never sink
Yet I wonder if there is nothing from above
That will change my mind
I continue to live the way I live
As with everyone else, there remains a force that will bind
The way I think about life and how I give
For in the end, true peace of heart shall I find.
