The world is falling, can't you see?
People are lying,
kids are dying,
Cannot you see?
The world is falling,
war,
destruction,
hunger,
poverty.
The world is falling,
the Earth is crying,
everyone's in danger,
in danger of dreaming,
for a better place.
A place of hope,
a place of dreams.
The Earth is falling,
the devastation appalling.
Ever so slowly,
falling,
and we are falling with it.

Favorite Quote:
The reasonable man adapts himself to the world the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man. Never say you can't always believe and say "I can" and believe in yourself.

Your piece showes emotion and tranquility. It says how some people fell in our world which I belive is well capshered. You have done a really well job and this is an amazing piece of work.
