POETRY: Our Generation Keep Living In Cage

in poetry •  last month 

The wrong things are the new right things in this generation and it's scary.

Tell me how we celebrate the fake and shame what is real.

Numb to the pain we forgot how to feel.

Chained to the game growing up is our excuse.

We were changed by the age and we thought it was cool.

We laugh at the struggle but cry at the cost.

Though we look happy but deep down we're lost.

Tell me how we're quick to judge but slow to forgive.

Living for the ground we forgot how to live.

Comparing our own lives to fake futile type of reality.

The urge to look a type of way in a world of calamity is sick and integrity is being sold for the lowest cost.

We applaud what is broken and mock what is pure.

We talk about change but settle for shame.

Pointing our fingers deflecting the blame.

The wrong things are the new right things but will we wake up or just keep living in a cage?
