Who’s Going to Write?

Who’s going to write
For the lost ones
The ones who disappeared
The ones who fear
The weak, the crying
The ones who need a cure

Who’s going to write
I know I am
My pencil and I are tight
But who’s really going to write
For the ones who can’t read
The ones who forever bleed

But seriously
Who’s really going to write
Who’s going to take the time
To love everyone
And try and change a life

Who’s really going to write
For the ones who lost to death in a fight
For the ones who were born into poverty
The poor, the ones who wait weeks for a meal

I would just like to meet someone real
Someone who would really care
Someone who has love, just to share
Someone who would take on new burdens to bear

It just seems so fake
So unreal
That we live knowing an infant likely died
Because they had nothing else to do but cry
For help, for love, for food, for a chance to even live
It kills me inside
Because I’d gladly switch, and let them live mine

So when I ask you
Who’s going to write
I’d hope you take initiative
Grab change by the hand
Because we need more
Even Obama supports the war

Are you going to write?

Hi Edward =) I see you're new to the site, so welcome.

We do have a rule here, however, where we ask that you do two reviews before you post any of your own work, and after that that you do at least two reviews for each piece of your own that you post.

Please do the two reviews, and then I would be happy to review this for you, if you'd like. Just send me a PM.

Here's a link to the other site rules: rules.php

hey edward!!!
i think this poem is amazing!!!!
i noticed you are new to the site.... and if this is one of your first pieces i am very impressed!!! i think the issues raised in it are amazing... and they all make perfect sense to me.
i think you should be very proud of this poem and you should write more like it and about other things that are important to you because that is what writing is all about, expressing your feelings and your views..
well done!!!!!
