I wrote this last year and I think it's a repost, but I'm posting it again cause I feel it truely applies to what is going on today in the world. Tell me what ya guys think.

Empty Words

Empty words and useless phrases.
Life begins in ugly dazes.
Look at all you've created.
Look at problems you've situated.
People walking with no destination.
Smiles fading in desolation.
Truth muddled by bitter laughter.
Hate reimbursed by better after.
What life gives you is all you deserve.
Memories, too destroyed to preserve.
The world, too much reality to take.
The soul, too many wounds of ache.
Injustice brings the damned in view.
Stand to see this hatred brew.
What much more can people bare?
What more pain can these hearts spare?
These empty words and useless phases.
This life ends in dusty hazes.

WOW this was absolutly AMAZING

Liefhe alle ten spijte van duivel... A tes souhaits... A tes amours... Qu ils restent. J'ai t'adore. Je t'aime.

I'm just wondering what the post is about.
I've always seen you write about problems in certain societies
Thus, I'm trying to incorporate this poem that way
Tell me if I'm wrong, ok?
thanks for the read

là où est mon amour?
donde está mi amour?
wo ist meine Liebe?
