No escape

Some days I look around,
And all I see is gray.
There's no shelter from the pain. 
I feel like I am caught in a storm,
No escape. 
We skip through an easy life,
Only caring about ourselves
Never giving a thought to the weak,
To the poor,
To the starving. 
We laugh at someone else,
Only to discover they're already abused.
Already beat.
Already bruised. 
They're lost in a tornado of fear.
Of pain.
Of regret. 
They feel like they truly have,
No escape
