Over Populated



OVER POPULATED
This world is over populated
Crime increasing
Children going hungry
Homeless versing elements
Pandemic, Covid Illness
Homeless are dining
God can You hear our prayers
God are you listening
Please God dry our tears
We need every breath you give
Depression is real
Metal illness and addiction
Sleeping underneath a bridge
Makes for a long weekend
Working on the corner just to make a dime
crooked words on a cardboard
make shift sign
The towers are falling leaving just ruble to find
We paused as I looked over my shoulder
It was then I said I vow to leave no man behind
As a leader, a marine I’ll take full responsibility
And answer to my maker if I die
This world gets worse with each minute gone by
Riots, Antifa, Black Lives Matter, and the proud boys marching by the thousands leaving casualties, taking life
Crooked politicians
Rigged election status
We Republicans are reminded
And question why Biden
This world is over populated
To inflated
Are we living in the end times
Should I watch for the white horse
Should I listen for the trumpet in the sky
God can you hear us
God are you listening
God dry our tears and let us get the best out of life!
