Sadness

The storm has left me

in this mood;

Following the flood

is the flood of my tears;

Following the strong wind

is the wind of diplomacy;

Following the hunger

is the hunger of freedom;

What else

is left?

After all the world has ignored,

Nothing more than sympathy.

Where is a helping hand

to the ones that really need?

Only the soldiers are getting stronger

from the international energy bars.

Life is pretty ironic at times,

I've heard there also exist ups and downs,

and life also exhibits twist and turn,

But when will it come?

The huge downfall of the crooks.

Please wipe them all

All from this surface of the earth.

For the goodness sake

Please take them away;

to where they belong,

All the way

All the way

--------

Away from our sadness and dismay.
