Politics,

The real definition, no one will ever know

One vote here, one vote there

But,

What does it really make a difference for?

 

No one will ever know.

 

Lost children, lost families, hearts broken because the laws that they are passing and the changes they “are making” are no good.

 

Lisa’s mom, where has she gone?

Deportation you say?  

Oh god, what has she done?

Nothing,

Nothing, at all, so why must she go to the country where she was born?

Because they government thinks that for being part of a different culture and not having blue eyes and blonde hair she belongs somewhere else.

Leaving her daughter at home and her husband all alone..

But,

that doesn’t matter, because she can barely speak english, but she’s done nothing wrong then to work for her loved ones all along.

 

Gay rights being passed,

dont get me wrong, everyone deserves to be happy and all, but what about the real important things?

What happened to democracy?

What happened to taking in mind the populations concerns?

Nothing,

Nothing at all.

That’s why we need a change, a set of new people who will not think about money, nor the way they may seem to the world, and be bought by people’s bribes.

Because at the end of the day they don’t even feel fine.

We need individuals who will care and make this country..this world, a better place to live, to be in.

Because at this rate,  more lives are being taken then being saved.

And more hearts are being destroyed then brought together.

More families are being separated, and there is more hate than love.

And we are all being bought by materialistic things that we won't take to the grave.

So why don’t we start caring and living like brothers and sisters and taking God’s word in consideration and making this world a better place?

Why don’t we live unified instead of separated?

 

We need a change.

 

What happened to America? The land of the free? The home of the brave?

More like the land of the hate, and fake, and not saine.

 

We need a change.
