The World

God is good, God is great
our souls we pray for him to take

We all think the world is happy because of one little tree,
but somewhere out there is a man being killed over a PS3

Little boys run around without shoes on their feet,
and little girls die of starvation out on the street.

but here we sit stuffing our faces full with food,
and wearing shoes depending on what is our mood.

Crooks go out and steal from charity,
and they walk away all the more merrily.

Women are beaten, killed and raped
starting from what begun as one harmless date.

Thousands die from this cold winter chill
due to not having a place to call home still

Millions have been killed in the time gone past
all because they worshiped in a way we called daft.

Entire races wiped out with a grin
be it for land, money, power or the color of their skin.

Nations at war not over whats wrong or whats right,
but because they want their wallets just a bit more tight.

We all know its coming, it's quite easy to predict,
won't be quiet till this whole worlds blown to shit.

Bombs will be dropped, mushroom clouds el' fill up the sky,
but not a single soul left will be here to cry.

God is good, and God is great,
Why has he left us to this fate?

One of a few I wrote.




All my other ones ended on a good note, so I tried to make a depressing one.




I really liked the "God is good" thing myself lol.

It's more then decent, it's actually pretty damn good.

Your word choice is what makes it a good read.

Yeah after I wrote it I read it and said



"damn, this is pretty good" lol




Out of all my poems its the one that took me the most time, you wouldn't believe how many corrections I had to make to it before I felt it was done.

You would pay for poems? lol
