Half Way Across The World (610) [[CONTEST]]

Half Way Across The World

Half way across the world,
Someone is slowly dying,

Half way across the world,
Someone lays there crying,

Half way across the world,
There are children without homes,

Half way across the world,
There are parents who live alone,

Half way across the world,
There are people who live in poverty,

Half way across the world,
There are people who won't live to seventy...

If only you took a second to look
At the world for what it truly is,

An angry, fearful, hated place,
There is no happiness or bliss,

If only you took a second to look
And to study all lifes' woes,

Then you wouldn't spend it looking away,
Or high up on your toes
