Left Behind

City torn apart by two gangs
buildings burned to the ground,
people upset and full of pain
streets empty without even sound.

Most days filled with blood shed
gun fire from sun up to sun down,
fights breaking out in the streets
dead bodies strung out all across town.

No going outside unless you need to
protection in hand just to take a walk,
most of the locals are weak and hungry
some are just angry, in circles they talk.

Government involvement has ceased to exist
Left the city to completely destroy itself,
not many of our good citizens are left
most moved on and stopped waiting for help.
