In a time of need

I sit alone and wonder why.
The world has passed,
I sit and cry.
I think of how I've missed a lot.
How I lay in my corner,
My special spot.

I think of what it has come to.
Raging war and death too.
It's hard to sit and do nothing,
A rather sad song must we sing.

It's saddens me that it's come to this,
Children die and without a miss.
We sit in our homes and waste what we have,
Not thinking of others...how sad.

With the simple change that we could spare,
We could save a life and let them live without despair.
We laugh at what is not so funny.
We play around with our money.
We use and waste and don't think twice,
Honestly,
It's not all that nice.

This poem is sad,
But so true.
Don't get mad.
I say this to you.

Don't let a day pass by without seeing,
Our world needs help,
Aren't you hearing.
All the cries?
