America,
America
Why have you forsaken?
From loyal cries and stances,
To bloody rages and cursed actions.
America, America where have you gone?
Your strength was once respected and honored,
Now you are mocked and betrayed,
By those that live within you.
America, America, what is happening?
You allow leaders to rule that rearrange your faith,
Why do you let 'One nation under God' change to
'We stand alone?'
America, America, why have you fallen?
Your people were so strong and noble,
Brave and willing to fight for freedom,
But now they scam ways to take each other's lives,
Like vultures circling around a dying soul.
America, America where has your love gone?
Once upon a time you stood for what was right,
You followed the Lord's command,
Sought out to bring the lost and dying to God,
But now you push the Christian aside,
Allowing a new religion to rein.
America, America, where is your freedom?
America, America, where is your love?
America, America, why have you abandoned me?
America, America, what happened to my Country?
The first line came to mind last night when I was lying in bed, I didn't jot it down but thankfully it was still fresh in my mind when I woke up so here's what ended up coming out.

I don't want to comment on the poetic portion of this right now. I simply want to say that I cry for the country that has passed, and I see that you sense this too. What we were is no longer. Too many older people can't see this and live in the past. We were the greatest nation on Earth...no longer. It happened on my parents watch and on mine, the change. I can seriously say if I knew then what I know now, I may not have had all the kids I did. Thanks for seeing and caring.
