We the PeopleA Poem by Robert LunaJust my thoughts as of lately
What happen to America The land of the free, and the home of the brave Now the unmarked grave of the word HOPE This is not my America The land in which the brave become the homeless and We the People become a country of passive prey Playing the part of a victim in a tragedy that we helped write We have no one else to blame and no where else to turn Allowing our so called government to turn a deaf ear to our cries As we say no more NO MORE As we scream it from the roof tops to the dirty pavement that lays crumbling beneath our feet We The People are America I am America You are America WE are America My brothers and sisters This is a cry to every woman, man, and child Take up your weapons because the war has begun Do you not have a voice Allow it to be heard Sharpen your tongue so your words may strike fear let them know We have had enough Stop talking about United We Stand For we can not stand united if we allow fear to hold us in place We must march bear the burden of the unknown We the People are the future All rest upon our thick heavy shoulders as we seize a new world and refresh the spirit of America Give the youth an understanding They are not entitle to anything that they themselves are not willing to fight for It seems the words remain unspoken That is why I continue to try to set this right We are in the middle of a fight it’s for our very lives and We the People can no longer stand on the side lines Hoping and praying this will pass in time The time is now We must some how find a way to make a change before it is to late So ask yourself What happened to our beloved America The land where your freedom is for sale to the highest bidder We must carry on and go forth We the People We must march Bear the danger of uncertain as it all rest upon us and the choices we make We the People must take upon the task to make a change take place and we can not give up without a fight The time is now stand stand up and be counted as one of We the People And let your voice be heard © 2009 Robert LunaFeatured Review
