The World Is Not Lost

The faces full of dark , like the eyes of a prisoned lark . Not a drop of tear to be found in the cold-blooded eyes , frozen though round . Freedom is not free , it has a cost . So look around you , and feel the lifeless crew . The world as it is , is completely lost . The sun never shines , doesn't free the world from vines , all cold and frost . Corruption is an epidemic ; it destroys the world . But the silver-lining will shine , everything will take a fold . For the Saviour will come ; the world is still not lost .

I liked the rhyme scheme, though it is of 14 lines, it cannot be called a sonnet. The reflection of the real world assumed to be illusion is astonishingly outsmarted, which makes the poem more charming and a much expected poetry indeed. - Rudyard Jostle.
