Did Nothing

Salaam people, this is something new from me, its called Did Nothing

I feel guilty,
because so many inoncent people cying halfway across the world,
and in a seconds time,
thousands will breathe their last breath of life

i’m not the one who’s pulling the trigger,
or passing the decisions,
but i’m still guilty by not speaking out against the injustice
which makes me complacent

right now as i’m sitting here writing this poem,
and as your sitting here listenning or reading,
theres a 5 year old kid in kandahar or baghdad,
wishing for him you and i would get up and do something

but we do nothing, and they grow up being labelled as ‘terrorists’
because this world is cold

another one grows upto be a suicide bomber
because they know in the eyes of the media
their true story is never told,
loosing all hope

and this is my fault for letting it happen
everytime i switched on the T.V
i saw children asking me for help
through the T.V they pleaded with me
by showing their tears flowing

but i was about as useless as a U.N resolution,
guilty of silent complicity
because i just sat there and did nothing
