What Was and What Has Been and Done
What was and what has been and done
It was a rainy night full of loud noises and bleak emotions
Distraught about the cold and the empty feeling in the stomach
With low tolerance of having not much vitamins
Viruses eat away in the flesh within
Vomiting gross white worms that feed from within
Mind sickens when rapid beating of the heart
Decay of blood in the inside where disease erupts
At three years of age experience is all I need to know
That food is the key to survival at that young age
Picking it from the ground or eating insects
Separating the waste to just get the edibles
Fear of not having anything till that next day
You fall on the ground staring up into the sky
Immense pain in the inside that you have surpassed
The feeling of all the depressions of the world
When the world could feed its self
When the feeling of not having something to eat
Is all you fear, a gash on your foot full of maggots is nothing
The surface does not hurt as long as your mind has hunger
Think of all the worlds’ food being wasted
Because of its size, length, weight, unexpired dates
The dates that don’t even reach before it is bad
Gets thrown away, in a pile of waste
What was and what has been and done
