The world as i see it,
it may be to late,
suffering loudly but people ignore them,
emotional dagger's searing pain,
people are scared, angry, and hopeless,
people are helping but many are selfish,
most can not see past their safe house boundary,
thinking the world is at peace not in misery,
Wake up and see the real happenings of our globe,
Bullied people, Starving people,
They rely on the help of other's,
we rely on our job's we depend on our material's,
no one is at peace in this world,
a world filled with hatred, love, sadness, excitement and unhappiness,
Wake up,  See the world as it truly is,
see the unedited uncut version of how we are living,
we may see our country as healthy and rich,
but  many poor live in poverty here,
many unhealthy big and to small,
diseases are common but people frown upon mention,
people are constantly dyeing babies to elder's,
Wake up i beg of you,
see our world truly,
we all see it sometimes as awful and painful,
we regret what we've seen and remove it from memory,
even I even you have done these things,
how can we say we hate our life,
how can we want to **** ourselves,
when other have it worse,
living in poverty,
starvation and pain,
how can we think we have it at the worst when really we are much better off,
life does not make sense,
life can never be completely sorted out,
all problems will exist forever,
peace will never stay forever,
Wake up and see our world truly,
for if we wait to long,
if we think to hard,
if we shy away to much,
and ignore the more needy,
our world will very well be like theirs.
all problems are relevant
