My world/ my society

By H2O the silent poet

the young turn old

babies commit suicide using the umbilical cord.

Miscarriage of justice never grows old

and trust me this ain't a code.

...saints roam around the streets with broken haloes coz people are cold.

Faith is timid as it hangs with a noose in your heart, I can tell you not bold.

Faith folds its fate within a grim letter,

now our lives are turning into some mold.

When fate gets darker, the root of all evil suffices~ now our motive is gold.

....graves turn when dead men tell tales, yet the scripture never told us

I'm tired of this old rhyme, well excuse the pun

but I'm really tired of these fictions, killing ain't fun.

Oooho listen, while I turn this rage into a page,

girls face a wrinkle in time coz they couldn't keep up with the pace.

I saw her feel her consequences using braille cause she opted for a blind date,

They are saying prevention is better than cure but they are benefiting from these rates.

we feel the belly of the beast its chew of the seven deadly sin, see~ my soul faces the burning gates.
