Sometimes I wanna scream
at the sheer complacency
Of everything around me
Just because I'm young in years
doesn't mean I'm ignorant
If you find you disagree
Your time here's not well spent
For I could tell you many things
You may have well forgotten
The heart to think the best of people
comes from those as me
The beauty of
A summers night/ the first snow/ christmas eve/ and changing leaves
Is the only way we see.
It drives me crazy that I can't shake up the world
If I could I'd
Stop all clocks/ turn off sound/ and show the world a sunset
I'd play a song
Into the hearts of men
Let them see
why we
Of happiness and youth
Stay within ourselves
To avoid facing the truth
One day, or so it seemed
Everyone of us
will be the same.

Excellent write here
Often the young does hold the magic of life the elders have left behind . I believe its the young people who needs to remind us about life and the beauty about us it would bring love back where it use to be . The young are never ignorant they hold the key to the ways of life before all the electronics and material things people put first today .Bravo on this write and yes I hear your every word
