Crying Shame
It upsets me how cruel people are in this world today
pictures show baked in dirt crying alone
Having grow up tainted with killing and brutality
in the streets bombs going off
Earth shattering noise as the ground trembles
one feels a shaking underneath
Scared out of your wits
the effect it has on children
poor innocent little souls
If only they knew
being born into this selfish cruel world
it would make the hardest heart shed a tear
the scars forever remain
It leaves such damage
governments they all claim not to see
Everything is all controlled by mans greed war war war
is all one heart hears
what it all boils down to in the end
God be with them I pray
beginning their beautiful life's
tainted with scars
suffering little children
to hear the patter of little feet
truly a Godsend
