Poem Title:
Poem
Pay close attention to the words I say; We're living our nightmares every single day. We're still crying cuz people are dying From robbing, stealing, stabbing, and lying. Bombs going off, gunshots fired; I'm so sick of tired of being sick and tired. God is watching you and doesn't like what he sees: So before it's too late, you better get on your knees. My heart hurts when I watch the news; I have so many questions because I'm so confused. Somebody tell me what the hell is going on: One day you're here, next day you're gone. Now our lives will never be the same. So what did we do to deserve this pain? I'm at a loss for words, all I do is cry: There's another question I need to ask: Why? This is a message to everyone around the world, To every man and woman, and every boy and girl. I'm not a preacher, but I'm speaking from the heart; We must get together 'cause we're falling apart. United we stand, divided we fall; This isn't just a poem; it's a wake up call. You shouldn't have a gun or even need a knife; You don't have to take away another precious life. You can't keep shooting people, kids, and cops: I can't take this anymore; this has got to stop. I'm just a messenger; I'm here to spread the word, And I urge everyone to let your voice be heard. Open your eyes now, and you will see If you wants to make a change, it starts with you and me. Let's love one another when times are tough; Let the haters know once and for all enough is enough.
