The world (Free verse) by hamgurl
The world is no longer safe
I tell you because I care
You got to treat each day like your last
Because who knows when you won't be there.
These days you can't sit outside
Or even leave your car
You can't have too much freedom
Because you're scared to leave your kids too far
You have to clutch your purse
When its dark you have to walk fast
And you can't ever leave your keys in your car
When you're about to buy gas
Your kids can't play on the lawn
Or even walk down the street
They can't accept candy from strangers
You even have to be careful what you eat
You got to be careful who you have in your car
And who you ride when and where
Sometimes the only way to be safe
Is to act like you don't even care
We can no longer protect people
Because you never know who's next
Some people believe its a curse
Or maybe some kind of hex
But its just pure evil
Simple loud and clear
So hold on to your valuables
And especially your loved ones
Cause you never know whats near.
