LOST!!! by Ethan Quant
I look around me and I see a once peaceful world,
now nothing more than a battlefield for war.
The joyous sounds of laughter,
replaced with cries of pain and suffering.
The once beautifully blue sky
now darkened by the clouds of impending doom.
Poverty is all around me now,
the people, my people, who walked tall and proud,
have all been reduced
to nothing higher than the dogs they once despised.
Life is a thing of the past
death is the present and future.
The fragrant cent of roses after a summer's rain no longer fills my
nostrils;
all I smell now is the stench of decaying bodies.
Is there no hope for my world?
Is there no salvation for these poor condemned souls?
No, there is none for this world has run out of time
time is no more.
For the living,
life just goes on in a blur.
They were given choices,
some chose to walk, other chose to run.
Some made right choices
and others made wrong ones.
Look at where you are now,
is there still peace in your world.
Is your sky still blue,
can you still hear the laughter of the people?
It is not too late for you and your world.
Please if not for yourself for me,
choose life and not death.
There is still hope for you and yours.
Though to late for me and mine you still have time,
use it wisely or it will slip through your fingers and
you will never be able to get it back.
And you will be lost for all eternity.
