Watch

I watch.

I watch the leaves turn brown,

I watch as the time goes by,

I watch the crime rate rising,

I watch the young mother singing to her baby, a sweet lullaby,

I watch as life is getting harder,

I watch the wars happening down the road,

I watch the world getting worse,

But is this really what the youth are dying to know?

This is what our children see from day to day,

They don’t listen to what you say,

What happened to the great people of this land?

So I just sit and…

I watch
