Fear

This world, Once so happy, so innocent, I fear is turning around. Joy fades, As the shadow unravels. People killing just for fun, The world as I knew it is done. No one dare speak a word, For fear of death. The malevolence and hostility, Has become too much. Watching the demise, Of what I used to know, Now disfigured and mangled, Has pushed me over the edge. I see people I love, Take their own lives, And follow I must, For this world, Is not longer my own, No longer what I call home.
