New Begginnig....
New beginnings:
It’s all going great,
Then suddenly the world caves,
And the sun doesn’t rise again,
The cold creeps in and so does poverty,
Children turn beggars, turn thieves, turn killers,
They call it the new age,
The age of darkness,
They say it’s worse than the zombie apocalypse,
You don’t believe them,
Say one day it will change,
Say one day you will see the sun rays,
Say one day, you will see the new beginning.
It’s all going great,
Then suddenly the world caves,
And the sun doesn’t rise again,
The cold creeps in and so does poverty,
Children turn beggars, turn thieves, turn killers,
They call it the new age,
The age of darkness,
They say it’s worse than the zombie apocalypse,
You don’t believe them,
Say one day it will change,
Say one day you will see the sun rays,
Say one day, you will see the new beginning.

A stark but poignant perspective. The world, the universe, is a place of continual destruction and creation. There are many stark contrasts, but as terrible as it is, life goes on.
This is very bleak Amina. It all leads back to your government for not taking care of the neediest in its society. Your poem describes very well the collapse of moral structure through poverty.

Let's hope so! Nice writing, Amina... Had to comment for obvious reasons :)
