The World Outside
Wishing the sun would shine again
The clouds have all moved in again
It’s the ending of an age
A new story, a new page
The book of light and dark
A child lost inside the park
Someone lost, someone found
A poor stray dog locked in the pound
A patient’s heart upon the table
A doctor’s hope, but still unable
One true love walks out the door
The woman crying on the floor
Someone hungry, stealing food
What their diet doesn’t include
People lying in the streets
Men with guns those people meet
Selling, buying, need for drugs
Whatever they need they aren’t hugs
The bloods, the Cripps the gangs all here
The sorrow they cause, a mother’s tears
The cheating husband, the druggie mom
The patient’s blood, the streets are calm
The gangs, the strays, the child lost
Takes rest inside the winter’s frost
As the sun grows light, and clouds float by
The problems rage, are never gone
I find solace in daddy’s arms
Protect me from the dangers near
“Its ok your home now dear”
