What will you do in life?
Prevent kids from all those suicides,
The ones who look towards razors and knifes?
Or take care of the ones who are on the street,
All those kids who are mistreated.
There are people in this world
Struggling to survive
To stay alive
While all you out there being spoiled
Why dont you become embroiled.
All it takes is a helping hand
So take a stand
Help the kids in need
Not just yourself.

Wow I don't know what to say!! It's a short simple little piece of poem yet it carries such a powerful message and a deep meaning. Your poem is just so true and I see it like a great Wake Up Call. Keep it up you have a great talent and most of all never stop fighting for what you believe in ^_^ Thank you for sharing this I love it :D
