Poetry that thinks out loud

Take for granted

Taking everything for granted.
Would we do that if we had all we wanted.
If there were no bad times.
No loss of life no crimes.
Would this life be what it is today.
If everybody was always ok.
No fear of hurt or pain.
No financial strain.
Nothing to highlight the meaning of good.
If everyone was well would you care as you should.
Some people think no bad will come there way.
Take everything for granted in everyway.
Undermine people just knowing their there.
Thinking they will not be going anywhere.
So instead of caring they show lack of respect.
If others need help they bluntly reject.
Order others about only thinking of themselves.
Setting up a lonely future for their selves.
For when the age comes they cant live alone.
They will know the reason their on there own.
So if you don't want to be a lonely departed.
Take time to be a bit more kind hearted.
And think of things you take for granted.
