"the form of government in which the supreme power is held completely by the people under a free electoral system."
i am so disappointed and i marvel
at how quick we are to follow
i am not interested in their family lives
but how they are going to better mine
i am not concerned about their outcome in the race
but the outcome of this nation
that is drowning
we so desperately need changes
but we need the actions
not just the words
i grieve when i think of the economy
and how we would rather have the next
biggest thing than that which would help others
i grieve for the civilians being killed
being tortured and torn from their families
for our own selfish gain
i grieve for the suffering
being served hospital bills
on their death bed
i cannot fathom how the richest country
can be so cruel and selfish
i am trying to figure out how i can
help or change anything
i just find myself
feeling helpless and misunderstood
there is so much going on everyday
that we turn our heads from
i ache for a peaceful place
but i guess i just need
to wait until this life is over.
