CAN IT BE 2
Can it be
That this world is headed for a fall
Can it be
That this will not affect just one but all
Can it be
That real love has come and gone
Can it be
That so many are not getting along
Can it be
That we’re too caught up with self
Can it be
That we don’t make enough time for someone else
And have taken care off of the shelf
Can it be
That we have lost critical and free thinking
Being led around like lost sheep
With this being just the beginning
Can it be
That we have lost our way
Believing anything that seems right
But wrong on any day
And too easily swayed
Unable to truly convey
Each and everyday
While continuing to fail
Act or say
Enough is enough
Turning your head the opposite way
So you can stay further out of touch
Humility and peace
Is this asking for too much
Can it be
That we have become
Overly creatures of habit
As hate and injustice run rampant
With greed and corruption
As the standard and norm
Nor far removed from this storm
Can it be
That most of our hearts have gone cold
Instead of staying warm
And constantly making the same mistakes
Even after we’ve been warned
Repeating the same old history
And unfortunately
Most of us just cannot see
Or have turned a blind eye
To our harsh environment surrounding us all
Because the masses are still asleep
With each heartbeat
The illusion of winning
With a slow pulse on repeat
No rise but a fall
And living life at a crawl
Can anyone else see what I see
With everything going on
And evidently
Can it be
Where writing comes alive
