Cry For Help by luckyred
Open full image in new tabDescription
I stand behind my prison gates
denied...., ignored...., forgotten.
With time I slowly fade away,
my valued lessons wasted.
I've called to you before for help,
my cries are still unanswered.
Is it you can't hear me call
or that you can not face me?
I represent so many things,
an ageless forest trodden...,
a hungry nation weeping...,
displays of ignorant hatred.
Is your life so busy that
the meaning slipped away?
Are your eyes so blinded
that you can no longer see?
Life is for a reason
filled with lessons we should learn.
To take a step to change things could ....,
but alas.....
Life gets lost in daily tasks
and striving for so little.
And treasure troves will never be
as full as some would like it.
My "right to be" depends upon
the actions that you take.
To turn from me will never change
what still could come to pass.
And while you strive for little things,
that still will leave you empty.
I wait within my dangerous realm,
I mourn...., I hope...., I sit......

This covers so much territory, from the homeless, to abandoned pets, to war victims, to domestic violence, to me not answering your e-mail, to starving kids in India...I could go on, but I'm sure you've had enough! :) Education is the only thing that can effectively change society, and as long as the masses struggle to survive and the rich struggle to "earn" money from the masses, this will be relevant.
