Where am I?
I swear that nothing I see seems real
The pain I see in people's eyes
And the chaos in which consumes the world.
Have I died and gone to hell?
Because I see my brothers and sisters die
Over greed and money
Over race and creed.
My relationship with the world
Seems so empty
As I hide indoors to hide from the truth
And I hide to protect others from me.
I see darkness where light once was
Death where life should have been
Laughter turned into sadness
And happiness turned into pain.
Am I the cause of my own damnation
The root of all my trouble
The reason for my clouded thought
And the slayer of my own heart

Touching. Good writing
Thank you so much for the comment!
I feel the same way. the key is
sometimes
All I gotta say is I am not broken yet so I got a little more press in me
Good write. It is not you there are many that feel like this with the way our world is at the present. Look towards the light, it is out there.
