Too many

I'm new to this site... I've recently got the bug for writing. I'm just looking for advice and your thoughts will be greatly appreciated.

Too many people are suffering.
Too many people are frightened.

Frightened for their future, but not just theirs but their loved ones.

Too many people feel like they're alone in this dark, cruel, world.
Sadly, maybe they are.
How many people truly care about others?

Too many people are scared to awake each day.
Although, who can blame them?
Waking up every single day just to suffer some more?

Life should not be so painful and meaningless.

When will the pain stop for these people?
Can someone arise to aid these people in their time of desperation?

Too many people are suffering.

Author's Note

I'm not sure if this is a suitable text for poetry but I'm just using writing to express my feelings and reduce stress...
