The Saddest Things

Looking up
Seeing hate
Who’s slowly becoming life’s mate?
People talking about the lost lives
About the disturbed hearts and sickened minds
So many innocent lives buried
So many hopes and dreams shattered
So many sleepless nights from now until forever.

By the casket tears fall
Losing friend after friend
Time after time
It’s getting old
We lost the faith and hope of the world
We lost love and replaced it with violence and harsh words.

Wishing danger wasn’t in the day
Whishing people would simply walk away
News keeps on coming out
Another got shot
Another committed suicide
We’ll never see what’s going on
Until the day’s end and everyone is gone.
