I used to live in no fear
Missing my mother was the only thing that made me tear
One day i woke up and the world was crying
I felt my safety net fading for now innocents are dying
My fear builds up every time i walk down the streets
I keep hoping and wishing that it's all a dream
Every single country is fighting
They now kill instead of uniting
The days where i can play with all freedom i surly do miss
Now this brutal phase I long to skip
I can hear them crying for help
I can hear the sound of there deaths
In one second the world has shifted from love to hate
The murder and torture are increasing, they say it's just fate
I vividly remember the laughs and joy
Turned into blood and war
It aches me inside
To know that everyone's blind
Roaming around i have been deprived
For there own sake everyone lied
People being reckless with gods blessings
They've forgotten that he's the reason for there earnings
The soul, i see no longer matters
People creating problems through billing blunders
I sigh, because I've done all i can
I cry, for i don't know how this whole thing began
When i close my eyes i see myself against the world
Yet when i open them everything seems impearled
This is a strange place to be living in
Sometimes i have to hold everything within
I used to live in no fear
Missing my mother was the only thing that made me tear
One day i woke up and the world was crying
I felt my safety net fading for now innocents are dying
My fear builds up everytime i walk down the streets
I keep hoping and wishing that it's all a dream
The truth, my friend, is that the world has always been like it is now. Human beings have not changed and will never change as long as they are driven by the desire to possess power and wealth.

I would like to translate this poem
Nadine you tell it so powerful and help us to see a little bit into the horrible realities of war going on in your own neighborhood every day. How totally against anything associated with anyones God. We all know that no God wants the hatred and violence in the lives of little children and the old people or anyone. You tell it so very well with strong feelings that come from being in the middle of it. I am so sorry that you and your loved ones have that in your lives. Praying that it will change very quick and you can enjoy being the beautiful young lady you were born to be... Loving and laughing instead of living in fear....... Thank you for sharing some of your life with all of us.......... Jim Troy
