Suffering

by samantha   May 3, 2005


I thought i had a massive problem
which was horrible and made me so sad
but i didn't think of these other people
and compared to them my life is great and i should be glad

my problem is tiny
i just thought it was big
i forgot about all these poor people with no money
ooh god I'm such a pig

we all complain when we don't get what we want
but just take a minute and think of them
they are all so strong and great
we could never do that, it would just cause mayhem

think of the children
all on their own
no family, no food, no love
nowhere to sleep and no where to call home

think of the children
having to drink dirty water
think about if they grow up
maybe not being able to have a son or daughter

we cry over stupid things like losing a boyfriend
they don't even have time for boyfriends and girlfriends
they even have a rough idea
about when their life is going to come to an end

after all this
i feel an awful amount of greed
just think of all these unfortunate people
and feel their hearts bleed
