The Power To Be Heard.
If I could change anything,
I would start with the way our generation chooses to think;
The power of our voice is contagious and on the brink.
If I could make a difference,
I would take a young child and enlighten their troubled mind;
For the road that will grant you your dreams is not far behind.
If I could create change,
It would be the social media and the people we look up to;
A celebrity is praised and defined by their every move.
If I could encourage peace,
The troops will be sent home with their loved ones to sleep in their own beds;
This would surly relieve the stress from within their heads.
If I could be heard,
I would raise my voice and encourage change and solutions to look forward to;
Not to distract you by the nonsense the news crews expose to you.
If I never lose hope,
The generations to come will thrive while I’m alive,
And my children’s children will undoubtedly survive.
This is the struggle that I will one day have changed.
We are one loud voice, and together we will see ignorance and negligence be detained.
-Whitney Weise
