What's happening to this place <br />It's no longer free, no longer safe <br />No longer home, but a military base <br />With no hope nor faith <br /> <br />God Bless the people who died <br />Forgive those that lied <br />Our government is corrupted and will always be <br />So god I pray to thee <br /> <br />Stop the violence, stop the war <br />I want it to be like before <br />When we known who we really are <br />And true happiness didn't seem so far <br /> <br />When all this corruption didn't occur <br />When what's right isn't a blur <br />When everyone actually cared <br />We respected and shared <br /> <br />God help me <br />Help me make them see <br />What their doing is wrong <br />That were not that strong <br /> <br />We're no longer safe here <br />So many things I fear <br />Maybe not now but later on <br />I can't stop what they begun <br /> <br />God I pray and pray <br />For all the darkest days <br />You'll help overcome this <br />And make it again bliss <br /> <br />No more fears <br />No more tears <br />No more crying <br />No more dying <br /> <br />I want it like before <br />God make us free and safe once more<br /><br />Katherine Sessor<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/once-more-16/
