I'm lost in thought <br />True sincerity cannot be sought <br />Feeling broken hearted again <br />In serious need of a friend <br />I keep on searching, failing each time <br />All people seem capable of, consists of crime <br />Love, love usually ends up breaking our hearts <br />Families consistently become torn apart <br />What is this world coming to? <br />There is no safe place to run off to <br />Priests turn around and rape a child <br />Then, police arrests teenagers for acting wild <br />Gun shots fire off in daily crime filled streets <br />Poison is handed at children's feet <br />Lovers, they lie and cheat <br />Then grin at the personal signs of defeat <br />At night I often rest my head to cry <br />Wondering why, I wish i could grow wings and fly <br />far away, I dream of the day <br />Where in love is where, people stay<br /><br />Melissa Caron<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/signs-of-defeat/
