Sacrifices for the World by ~AlfaAngel:iconAlfaAngel:



What would you do to save a stranger?
Would you risk putting yourself in danger?
Would you jump for a bullet to save someone?
Or would you turn your back on the victim and gun?

When you lend a helping hand to anyone at all,
How far will you go before letting them fall?
A lot of people say they’re generous and kind,
But push past people so they’re not behind.

Have you ever worried about anyone in Darfur?
Do you even know what terrors occur?
The men burn their women and kids alive.
They torture, rape, and kill anyone who survives.

But start even smaller: people in your city.
Have you ever given anyone any pity?
Ever given up your taxi for someone in need?
When was the last time you did a good deed?

Umm.... threw this together real quick. Well, sort of. I did the first few lines AGES ago. Like, I don't even remember when. Definately not one of my best pieces.

I've noticed that almost all my poems sound exactly alike. Except maybe 2. I really need to fix that... XD

Wow, this is awesome. :)
I love how it all it all goes together, not like some songs and poetry, that just add in random words for it to ryme.
Very good! Love your poetry. XP
