our world.

our world in an honest point of view.

the air we breathe that keeps us alive

we cannot see but makes us thrive

the water we were given here for free

the man added cost and created poverty

the fruit that grows and feeds our young

keeps mankind healthy for songs to be sung

the trees of the world that help us breath

man cuts down in the name of greed

the animals of nature which give us such joy

we trap in cages as if they were toys

the people of this earth who love and kill

keep scheming and dreaming for the next deal

each community and country has a religious faith

they believe in the greater and if good will be saved

but which is wrong, which is right?

your god my god, they begin to fight

they end the lives of the man that disagrees

over something unproven that has not been seen

if only they could worship the most important thing

the earth that is around us that harbours our being.

instead of religion that causes segragation and tears

keep opinions to yourself but share your ideas.

Author's Note

An honest view of our world we live in.

wow, its so sad how true this poem is. Your a very good writer, very literal, just one spelling mistake that I think I saw :D "breath" do you mean "breathe"?
Other then that very beautiful keep listening to the words around you and put pen to paper. You have a gift, so use it.
Blessed be.

your god my god, they begin to fight
they end the lives of the man that disagrees
over something unproven that has not been seen
if only they could worship the most important thing
