Broken Land

by Ben   Jan 31, 2006


Multiculturalism, thrown out the window
Bloods spilt on the street
Whose hands are dirty?
Why is there so much deceit?

So much pain
So much suffering
Death for a useless cause
Haven't you had enough of this?

Rampages of pointless violence
Spread through our nation
Sea-side suburbs transform into a battle field
Who's the one to blame?

As cultural tensions erupt
Sydney turns into an ethnic war zone
The streets run red with blood
Disunited, we stand alone

So much pain
So much suffering
Death for a useless cause
Haven't you had enough of this?

    Beautiful, darling. Your words, the way you say things, it's all so perfect. You explain things so well. You have a depth to your writing that I can't quite pin-point and explain. But it's there, and I heart it. I hope you are doing well; keep your head up and continue to smile for me. The world isn't always cruel. E>. xoxox. Take care.

    Much love,
    Mortie.x.
