Our World Is Bleeding Poem by Jazmin OK...

I see the world bleeding
The people crying,
The children dying
Howling
Weeping
‘Life is a gift’ they say
To some maybe.

Why do we close our eyes?
Turn our backs
Look the other way?
For the ones who we ignore
See a gaping wound
In their lives
They’ve no bandage
We’ve stolen the stock
To cover our eyes

We live our life
Not knowing
Never knowing
Forever forgetting
Those who could
Change the world
If we changed how they lived
They could fly
Someday

Can’t you see?
To live like us
It’s all they’ve
Ever wanted.
