This city was not always how it is now.

This city was not always how it is now.
It was once a place where you never had to lock doors, lock windows.
A place where children could play at night without fear of being taken away.
This city has changed much over the past century.
We have more forms of entertainment.
We have two of the best public schools on the east coast.
This city also has fallen so much over time.
Crime Rates have risen and have destroyed our communities.
Teen pregnancy has caused there to be more children without fathers.
We have been affected by the economy so much.
Jobs have been reduced so much that too many people are unemployed.
we've also had more businesses come to this city.
Education has become so much better.
New ways of learning have appeared.
Allowing students to receive collage degrees and free passes to enter.
But I only have one wish for this city and its citizens.
I wish for us to come together and to work to build this city up to it's
past glory.
I wish that we join together to help end crime and to bring more jobs here.
But the only way this wish will be fulfilled is if the citizens come
together.
This is all I ask of you.
To come together and restore this city.
