Passive Retaliation
Dear World,
I officially hate you,
creating my existance
while pulling the strings too
blame it all on the past
but the cycle continues
Positivity's my helping hand
but I still stumble where my feet land
Creativity too, though brief,
she's a gift, man
yet her fire's burning out
because of your prioritized plans
social media's blooming
so now the flowers droop
technology is invading
our cultural loop
and where my childhood lies
I see it in friends too
gazes succumbed to gravity
faces planted in digital venues
And if Depression catches up to me,
will I be saved too?
If my anger goes unanswered,
can I be the same fool?
If my mentality bursts
should I be fearing the worst?
And whether it be me or you
either way, it still hurts
Something wrong with this poem?
