"Humans", just another word for disappointment.
They only abuse their blessed freedom.
But they're worth their appointment,
As the greatest in the animal kingdom.

However, few humans are unlike others.
The others who take life and destroy like a devil.
These few put their all to give life and create, and care for one another.
Unlike the others, they bear good-will.

These few humans, are the majority's salvation.
If not for them, it would mean extinction.
Alas, like all good things, they are unappreciated,
Forgotten and underrated.

Unfortunately, the truth is depressing.
But despair not, for though the "good" are few,
They'll always be giving, healing, creating.
And returning what the "bad" keep taking.

What the title says.

UPDATE: 28/01/2017
Corrected some spelling errors and signed my initials.
Also, I chose 'Free Verse' simply because the poem mimics several fixed forms (the form changing between verses) and I also 'cause everything I do is unorthodox.
