M's Poetry
Enough
I am so tired of all the killings
so tired of looking at the six o'clock news
with nothing but sadness in my eyes
I am tired of the injustice we impose
but the shock value we embrace
I am tired of lies from politicians
who can say change but can't make it a reality
I am tired of racism
in breeds even today and we are reminded just as we think we are
beyond it
I am tired of the rich complaining when the poor is suffering
I am tired of people injecting judgment
when they have never walked a mile in that person's shoes
I am tried of terrorism, is peace such a rarity these days?
sadly I think so and that is what is most alarming
people in general do not care for the person beside them
there I think is where the problems lie.
