Endless Monotony
I am only a child
Consumed with my own consumption
Want, need, give me, let me
I am bored, I am bound by the ropes of society
Chained to my peers, the very same
Endless Monotony.
I am only a child
Overwhelmed with abandonment
Lose, forget, discard me, leave me
I am a disgrace, I am a once white sheet
Blackened with imperfections only I can see
Endless Monotony.
I am only a child
Threatened for my feelings
Beat, taunt, abuse me, patronize me
I am a victim of all, I am a punching bag for the world
Bruised with the stings of the past And of tomorrow
Endless Monotony.
I am only a child
Starved for attention
Show off, please, parade me, use me
I am a toy, I am whatever anyone wants me to be
Empty in spite of the dull sparkles of my shell
Endless Monotony
We are only children
Confused, but not ignorant
Learn, create, see us, hear us
We are the world, we are unique
Never ruined, regardless of Life's attempts.
End this
monotony.
