The Day America Died Poem by Adam M Snow

The Day America Died



This is the day America has died,
it is a day for mourning; a time to hide.
The children's are crying,
for their love ones who's dying.
This is the day,
our freedom's stripped away.

We forgotten, 'One nation under God'?
Yet it was Him who we outlawed.
This truly is a sadden day;
for America, I must say,
'Tainted we are with bloodshed sin
forgotten the message with iron pen;
'that all men are created equal'
lost are we, forever sinful.'

This is the day America has died;
to the people, the President's lied.
The children's are hungry,
even the blind can see
how our great nation has fallen,
and how our freedom is stolen.
What about, 'We the people'
I guess we lost our soul.
We should be united,
instead we're divided.

What about our flag under fire;
the red, white, and blue we once admired?
tainted by the lies, spat upon the people;
but whom to say, shallow we've become to fall.
What was once 'the Land of the Free'
now is 'the Land of the Greed.'
There's just so much I wish to say,
it seems America has died this very day.

We lost our courage to fight,
bowed down in shame, we've lost our sight.
We've became the puppet that we are;
controlled from a distance, great and far.
Afraid to speak, for Death may follow;
subsequently afraid what lurks in the shadow.
Afraid to lend a helping hand,
to help the fallen proudly stand.

We forgotten the meaning behind this once great nation;
cowering in fear, we refuse salvation.
We curse the true Americans, the ones who's dying,
fighting through bloodshed; their families are crying.
We've let putrid lyrics taint our youth,
leaving this country with forgotten truth.
We've become weak; no more are we strong,
This ain't the America where I belong.

It died a long time ago sir. Fighting for what? Freedom? What freedom? We're slaves, afraid to speak out, we hang our heads.
