What Happened Poem by Gabrielle zulu

What happened to the innocence
What happened the happiness
Our world is full of sorrow
Our world is full of hate

The craziness of life itself
It seems to hold us on a shelf
are we afraid to take leap
are we afraid of what the world think

If we just step out of shelter
If we just take a chance
and give it all we got
If we take that jump
Take that leap
We might see
A better world

The things we hide inside
They just keep growing
Until there’s no room
To breath
We need to let go
And show that we will
Not be held captive to our beings.

If we just take a chance
If we just step out of shelter
and give it all we got
If we take that jump
Take that leap
We might see
A better world

When we let all go
And we let everyone know
That we’re not ashamed of what we are
We’re ashamed about what we may become

If we just take a chance
If we just step out of shelter
and give it all we got
If we take that jump
Take that leap
We might see
A better world
