"Can You Explain"
We have eyes but can not see,
We have minds but can not think,
We have mouths but can not speak,
We have strength but feel weak,
We have love but feel pain,
We have happiness but feel sadness,
We have joy but feel angry,
We have intelligence but are confused,
We are the future but stuck in the past,
We have life but see death,
We can change but feel ashamed,
We are strong but always seem to be defeated,
We have choices but can't make the decision,
We have plans but are never fulfilled,
We have family but feel separate,
We have friends but feel alone,
We have dreams but don't believe,
We have visions but can not see what is to come,
We learn every day but can't seem to grasp the concept,
We think but always seem confused,
We are rich but still poor,
We have health but feel sick,
We are humans but feel abnormal,
We are Americans but still discriminated,
We are a Nation but still hate,
We have Peace but still fighting,
We have questions but fewer answers,
We have problems but not enough solutions,
We have Power but are weakened,
We are smart but yet foolish,
We are mature but still act young,
We have responsibility but still break the law,
We have...........,
We are...............,
We can................,
We........,
