Linda Moore - Ugly Truths

Torn apart this soft heart
Ripping pain no one can chart
Empathy's strong hold on me
Lost so manys humanity
Cold, hard, social disgrace
Oh... what of this human race
Ignore the hungry, living in the street
Cunsume all resources, deplete
Always wanting more, more, more
Send your youngsters off to war
Common threads, untethered
Adrift, alone, hardened, leathered
Where is give, take, compromise
Will it lead to our demise
In a big world one voice is minute
Do not let yours be mute

Linda Moore
