Do You Care

Today's generation is messed up

Do you care
That our generation is gone
They don't know what is right
And mistake them for the wrong
Where is all the moral fiber
That once made us so strong?

I can't make it
Through a single damn day
Without seeing someone's personality
Start to crumble and decay
It's like we're so self absorbed
That we start to whither and fade away

Should you care
That there is beauty inside
A spark of longing
Unseen by the naked eye
In the homeless, the poor, and elders
Is being selfish the only way to get by?

Take a few deep breaths
And just think this through
Because doing the wrong thing
Will affect someone else's life too
But before you think of "personal appearance"
Remember; I'm here to help you

I care
About you, her, him, them, us
I care about the future generations
Being thrown underneath a bus
The problem is that we don't care
And the qualities that make us human are turning to rust

Do you care?
