The End

Folder: 
my poems

My world is hot, humid, and scary

My world is full of divisions, keeping one another weary

My world does not know what it feels like to be cold

My world is filled with people fitting into a mold

My world is surviving each day

My world does not know how to pray

My world is violent; full of pain and fear

My world is questioning when the end is near

My world does not know the meaning of unity

My world is void of community

My world is empty of thought

My world does not know the dangers it has brought

My world is run by technology

My world is a fake autonomy

My world does not know of any feeling aside from hate

My world is a dark, isolated fate

My world is full of murders; leading to its dying out

My world does not know that it is coming to the end of its route.
