If I Could Rule The World Poem by Florence Badejo

If I could rule the world I would love to see the people drown.
If they all burned in hell they would only scream for sound.
It would be quite a sight to watch them burn to death.
All the ones who hurt me just to waste another breath.
Do i care? why should i? the world is going to hell.
No one loves, no one cares. Nothing is going well.
Can't you see? Can't you tell?
The world is going to hell.
If I take over maybe i'd try to make the world go well.
I know i may hold grudges. I know i may fall down.
But all i ever do is try but no one ever cares.
Why should i care?
Why should i care for the world that tries to break me down?
I don't have many people, but the one that holds me close.
She is the one that likes pry and hurt me the most.
But i love her. She is my life, she is my love, she will be my wife.
I don't want to hurt, I don't want to die.
Not the way i feel inside.
Sometimes i wounder. "does she really love me? "
But i don't know. I'll never know.
All i can do is assume.
She says she loves me but says it's not true.
Tell me, just tell me, what on earth would you do?
