Better Days.
Just what has this world become?
Possessions held in such revere,
When no-one cares for fellow man,
There’s not one left to shed a tear.
Instead, they simply sit and stare
Whilst human kind just waste away,
And turn their face towards the sun
But that warmth too will fade some day.
Maybe it’s not too late for those
Whose heart has not yet turned to stone,
Who share a smile and shed a tear
For those who struggle on alone.
And help them keep the wolf away
When at the door he stands and bays,
If this were true of all mankind,
We could move on to better days.
