No Smile
"Open minded readers"
I have been asked lots
Why I don't smile ?
#instagram photos same
#facebook photos same
#googleplus photos same
My facial expression never change
Why?
On bender knees
Tears flowed from my eyes
To be honest
I have to cry
And ask myself
Why smile
For every innocent child that died
Brutally , wrongfully by the hands of murderers and casualties of war
Why smile
For the struggles of life that we face
Why smile
For the ignorance and hatred people have towards each other of all Races and classes and places
Why smile
Everyday I watch the news there is another murder
Why smile
Everywhere on this earth there is mass destruction, poverty , wars and hunger
Why smile
For the current situation of America
This pointless race war
Why smile
For every time when a access social media web sites it's all about another fight , another struggle , another hustle
Why smile
For the corrupt government system
And for the misleading of the people by the heads of state
Why smile
On bender knees
Tears flow from my eyes
And I say when
When will this madness end
When will this race war end
And we as a people
Live in love and unity again
When will the murders and the fighting end
When will some people stop treating themselves like garbage and not making beautiful example for the future generations to follow ?
Why are some people do blind to what's going on in this world
And who can help refuses to help ?
When will this madness end ?
Until then I refuse to smile
