War

Gunshots fire…bang,
You look outside as the rotten criminals hang.
Poverty at a high as the wealthy get rich,
While the rest of society is stuck in a ditch.
People dying left and right,
You turn around and see a fight.
Kids being left fatherless,
Families ending up in a mess.
Everyone in pure fear,
People feeling like a helpless dear.
Discrimination everywhere you look,
Due to the actions some took.
Homes turn to dust,
You can't calm down, you're always needing to adjust.
Even when the guns stop roaring,
The tears continue pouring.
