What Has the World Come To

Why do some people have to lie? Why not just be yourself and not try To be something and someone you are not To try and impress ,please tell me for what? Why cant people just tell the truth? why pretend and be someone your not whats the use? The world gets worse with each passing day I dread to think what is coming next our way No Kindness,no care no thought for others so consumed with greed and wealth No one seems to care for others welfare and health The future just seem to look so very bleak just trying to get through life from week to week Truth, human kindness ,care takes so little to do. One day it might be you

Great poem, everybody should be feeling this way. There is such a thing as karma.
