Used to be
by SoulRiserThis is a poem I wrote about my school.
--------
There used to be respect here
when it wasn't in demand
excellence in atmosphere
kindness all around
but advertising those facts
wouldn't work in this town
emphasizing other things
removing many choices
one by one they disappear
silencing our voices
you protect yourself from open minds
as you shrug the blame away
took a chance with one of a kind
and then lied to save your name
you started by ignoring
and slowly grew to greed
now all the good has fallen
because of one bad seed.
