Looking around the world
Seeing all the pain and hell
Everyone crying, or bleeding; dying
How could this happen so fast
Drives me to cry for the world
A river of sadness, madness
But I dry my eyes and walk forward
Lending a hand to the needy
Trying to find the cause and affect
Who'll protect the women and children
Suffering in sorrow
While nations supress in anger
Why doesn't anyone care
That the ones who hold ego high
Are raping the innocence of the world
The reichs stealing beauty
I walk around and try my best
But who'll help me spread hope and love
But I realise I must do it alone
Carry the stength
Through the world, shadowed in fear
Children need care and love
Why are the parents killing each other
Teens carry old and new problems
Every night I sleep
I wake feeling the pain
That the world is experiencing
But we all need more than this
Not reasons to die, but a reason to live
A light in the world; shadowed in fear

Second stanza "children" is spelled wrong.
Third stanza, fourth line, is "reichs" supposed to be "riches"?
Other than those two things, I think you've done brilliantly with this and I really enjoyed reading it. I just can't help the editor in me...it comes out on its own.
