Remember the days
When the world was bathed in light
When laughter was daily and tears were rare
Mommy could hold you on her lap
And kiss away your pain
But we’re bigger now
Mommy can’t kiss away this pain
Especially since you hide it so well
Now all we see are shadows
A twisted world with broken people
But why can’t we see joy
Because it’s there, always there
The world isn’t as horrible as we make it out to be
Just think of the silver lining
If you search, you can find it
Our rose coloured lenses are broken, sorry to disappoint
We see the dying world
We see pain for what it is
Society is killing
And we are powerless to stop it
