Torn apart this soft heart <br />Ripping pain no one can chart <br />Empathy's strong hold on me <br />Lost so manys humanity <br />Cold, hard, social disgrace <br />Oh... what of this human race <br />Ignore the hungry, living in the street <br />Cunsume all resources, deplete <br />Always wanting more, more, more <br />Send your youngsters off to war <br />Common threads, untethered <br />Adrift, alone, hardened, leathered <br />Where is give, take, compromise <br />Will it lead to our demise <br />In a big world one voice is minute <br />Do not let yours be mute<br /><br />Linda Moore<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/ugly-truths/
