Life Through My Eyes

I am only sixteen, close to seventeen. Yet my world comes crashing down. I see the true horrors of the world. How far evolution came and how far it is needed to go still. Man's greedy towards money. How people see others. Judgemental to people they don't even know. Words that really do hurt. Seeing things that are truly real without wanting to see them in the first place. Knowing that not one but thousands of people die every day. Diseases, starvation, beaten, raped, murder. How technology is trying to be a salvation. Looking on your street and seeing how real it really is. Seeing your loved ones die. Messing life up for yourself and trying to make it right again. Knowing that life only brings death.1

Author notes

THIS IS NOT DONE. STILL WORKING ON IT. I JUST HAD TO GET THAT PART OFF MY CHEST!

    Wow how true, I love how you write it in paragraph form. And how its actually about something real and true, things I think people lose thought of in writing poems. Nice work

    Excellent! I can't wait till you update it.
    You have a unique perspective there, but I would love to see you elaborate on just why your world has 'come crashing down'.
    How do see the real horrors of our world? Or is it just that the reality of the way the world really is has just hit you?
