Safe and Sound

By Broken Sonnet

I look at the world around me And the 1 thing I see is people in a fight What happened to the love a peace? It seems to have been blown from sight People are raped and killed All the girls are on "the pill" And those who aren't are 18 and a mother There dads are gone so that's there only lover People are shot and there are drug sellers When bad things happen there are no tattle tellers Our president can't take care of us But somehow he has a lot of trust Soldiers are sent to a far away country And think that everyone has a money tree Taxes are raised and so are gas prices For our soldiers in Iraq to be ground into slices So where did the love go?Why do people act like so? Will the world ever be a better place? Or will we always punch each other in the face If the violence would cease to an end Maybe God will then send A message of him being proud that now We shall live safe and sound -Broken Sonnet and "Momma"
