“Help”

By: Kiran Smitka

All over the world people stand for their rights

As the country splits hands of peace join

Stories come out and conspiracies are planted

People nervous to step outside

Parents refusing to let go of their children

Promises made, hearts broken

Children crying out for their lives

Solutions that benefit the media are discussed

Pictures surf the internet

There is only a problem when a child shows up to school with a issue in their hand

More and more cries for help

The parent continues to worry

The teacher continues to teach

The child continues to be scared

More problems rise above the surface

Only grasped to talk about for a moment

Then released and vanished into thin air

Then to be forgotten
