The World's Become So Cynical Poem by Mary Nagy

The World's Become So Cynical



Should kindness be forgotten?
Is it obsolete?
Should we live just for ourselves
and face this harsh defeat?

I can't believe this world
has come to such a state
that things like love and kindness
are going to dissipate.

I won't lose faith in man-kind.
We'll hold on tight and strong.
No matter what the 'people' say
In my heart, I know they're wrong.

I'll hold on till forever
to kindness and to love.
I'll get my help from family...
down here and up above.

Mary you are an open book, a good one though. I agree that it is easier to give in and slide into cynicism but that we need to try much harder to save the worthwhile. H
