Look Around

     I go and look around me
     And what is it I see?
     The smog and the pollution
     And the dying, wilting trees

     I take another look around
     And what comes before my eyes?
     So much fighting, so much stealing
     And so many people telling lies

     I look around again
     And what is it I find?
     So much killing, so much burning
     And the destroying of one kind

     And when I look around
     That final, one last time
     Can't seem to find the smiles
     Only scowls of hate and crime

     I don't know what you see
     But I don't like what my vision holds
     Our future looks dark and bleak
     Another story to be told

     What if the things I see
     Were only meant to get much worse
     What will happen then
     Will living be a curse?

     I go and look around me
     And the future seems not bright
     But who knows what lies ahead
     What will they see out of sight?
