Cold World Poem by Theresa Peters

Everyone killing each other
We all want to get to the top
No matter what
Like crabs we pull each other
down
And it never stops
It never will
For it's a cold world
Friends aren't friends anymore
Selfishness
Is what's all around
Lies, deceit
It's like plagues that surround
Stripping away the morals to
the ground
No love, just cold hearts and
Evil thoughts
When did the world become so
cold?
Is there nothing left to hold?
It seems this generation has
got nothing to bestow
But one day this will all be old
Gone and forgotten
Passed in the hands of time
Everything left behind
And we'll have to account for
all that which was unkind.
