Read Neighbourhoods Poems Online

 

Will Our Neighbourhoods Ever Be Safe Again

The day will come soon
As our safety ceases to exist
Mans determination
In his killing persists

Street crime is rising
To feed the life of drugs
Many people are afraid
Of these sick cowardly thugs

Society needs to change
Addressed by the powers that be
The ones that have been elected
In trust, by you and me

We need to change the rules
Prison sentences need to be revised
If your prepared to deal in drugs
Twenty years looks good in my eyes

Then it comes to murder
Where many citizens, they fall
But their killers are alive in prison
Their breathing, their living through it all

The world has so much compassion
It's time to channel it's feelings
No forgiveness for these scum
Execution, watch their feelings reeling

Compassion has to have passion
For the right to get rid of the wrong
And just maybe one day it will happen
As the whole world sings the same song

The chances of this happening
As they are sworn into government places
They stand proud to ask for our votes
Once elected, they appear to have two faces
