Cries

Cries thats all
I can hear
the smell of cocaine and lack of purity
and the tangy taste of beer
women in reveling clothes
and men all drunk and high
kids walking around the school
with guns,sticks, and knives
a wife with scars on her arms
and bruises on her face
but people pretend not to see
acting at their own pace
a child only five years old
the future in his hands
is broken by the cruelty
of these such great lands
and a girl seventeen
her whole life ahead
in the gutter is where she is now
lying cold and dead
last a man with cold gray eyes
and a smile of evil and death
stands over the world with a smirk on his face
while some of us breathe our last breath
Oh hope, some hope something so foriegn from here
in a world of death, rape, and evil
of sadness, mistakes, and horrible tortures
a world thats full of fear
what can we do but just cower and run
hide in our pathetic shells
while people all around us
are dealing with all kinds of hells
But a few of us so kind and pure
with a heart full of faith and good
try to help us and try to stay
doing what we all should
So who are you my sweet friend
with sadness in your eyes
are you a strong angel,
or do you stray where the darkness lies
