I once loved the World

Location

I once reached out a hand to all in need, but I had to draw it back.

I used to give everyone love, but compassion is what they lack.

I wanted to change the world, but everyone pretended they could not see me.

I felt invisible to the world, I doubt even you could see.

I harbour pain cast by others, creating waves of despair.

I used to think of everything equal, but now I know it hardly seems fair.

I plan on walking away from everyone, to be the best I can be.

I once loved the world, but the world wouldn't love me.....
