Ever since I first wrote this signature post for my blog I have had the pleasure of learning so much more and meeting so many new people through my blog and social media. So I wanted to repost it for those new and wonderful people that have become so supportive of my writing. Thanks guys, you know who you are.
Who Knew? by Veronica Romm
Who knew knowledge could be sorrow?
Who knew our rights could be stripped away?
Who knew laws could never govern?
Who knew leaders could get lost?
Who knew identities could be stolen?
Who knew faces could be altered?
Who knew science could betray us?
Who knew history could be ignored?
Who knew evil could be taught?
Who knew heroes could be villains?
Who knew our neighbors could be saints?
Who knew sinners could be teachers?
Who knew clothes could make the man?
Who knew possessions could be priceless?
Who knew wealth could be so hungry?
Who knew money could buy power?
Who knew fame could be an illness?
Who knew words could soon be censored?
Who knew hate could turn to love?
Who knew our bodies could betray us?
Who knew hearts could really break?
Who knew laughter could be medicine?
Who knew our children could be cruel?
Who knew man could choose a bomb?
Who knew mothers could kill their babies?
Who knew sisters could be strangers?
Who knew our sons could die at war?
Who knew pain could be a business?
Who knew pleasure could lead to death?
Who knew friends could turn against us?
Who knew memories could fade so quickly?
Who knew lovers could be untrue?
Who knew time could heal all wounds?
Who knew questions could be left unanswered?
