The World

 

  The world

I feel the world is burning but 

But still I feel I might survive 

Though my teeth are hiding inside 

Inside gums not showing their place 

Deep inside dentist can not pull 

Reddened skin sore she cannot soothe 

Those hidden sore teeth turning red 

Tried eating bleeding on my food 

Not to waste precious blood and food 

Crying doesn't help makes things worse 

I feel the world is burning, why 

Why do I try when there's no way 

. . .
