chao

a little rant on the frustrations in our time

I'm tired 

to be honest, this is the most tired I've ever been 

It's like my sleep has been fired;

all the thoughts, worries piling up 

frustrations are endless

tuning into the news everyday thinking is it hopeless ??

corruption, racism, terrorism at large 

pointing fingers has become the norm 

suddenly everyone is a judge 

though guilty is the only ruling 

its easy to turn a blind eye 

as we are forced to conform

yes, I'm just a teen 

but my mind is the future 

the past is the past 

elders think they are our rulers 

belittling and downsizing our 

creativity and ideas

no hannah you're too young to have an opinion

You'd think we were ghosts with the way they don't see us 

minorities being killed simply for existing 

the death toll rising, an inevitable listing

why should the color of my skin dictate how others treat me 

when will they let me (us) be
