A CRUEL WORLD

The world can be so cruel
And sometimes even nuts
A place full of tears and drool
Things of stench and blood and guts

A place full of evil and just specks of good
Filled with laughter and hate
A place where people don’t do things they know they should
And things are left to chance and fate

Things are dark and cold
Bland and dry
Things bog down as you grow old
You can lean towards the light but eventually you die

So I can only hope we go to a better place
One that’s warm and full of light
I hope he doesn’t see my life as a disgrace
And I soar as high as the heavens is my flight
