What Happened? Poem by Demetrius JonesDixon

What Happened?



What happened to the undying empathy everyone once had?
Instead we spit on the weak, express apathy and we're constantly mad

We worship cars, clothes and wealth, which builds our vanity
On the flip side the non-robotic units' struggle with their sanity

People never want to hear the painful truth
Too busy poisoning Mother Gaia or going on a wild-goose chase for the fountain of youth

Losing faith in the human race gives me ill health
All you're doing is moving heavy on toes of stealth

What strength you have is poorly supported by weakness
False smiles express pitiful souls that show no uniqueness

What happened to undying empathy everyone once had?
Instead we hide behind rusted iron clad

You assail me; it's okay
I assail you; I have to deal with the verbal spray

Twisted has this game become
Not sure if anyone understands where I'm coming from
