The World Today

The world today
Just isn't the same way
The trust is completely broken
And everyone is hoping
That their family
Turns out better 
Than what kids are taught today
Stealing, lying, and cheating
What has this world come too
No trust, security,or loyalty
Every person is free
But ones who make bad decisions
Tend to flee
Leaving there families be
Struggling to survive
Since their loved one decided 
To take a ride
On what they thought was 
The important side
