Voice of the Millennials


It’s different,

It all changes and you never quite know why or how or when,

The origin is a mystery,

Is it good comic relief,

Or simply just a tragedy,

And Israel thinks to himself,

What is life if only contentment in peace,

Radical ideas leads to radical tragedies,

Character building and warm appreciation for life,

Some days you just want it to stop,

You don’t know why your doing this,

Is there some kind of grand ending,

This is real,

Unfortunately life doesn’t give commercial breaks,

When things are bad you don’t have the privilege of the unseen narrator yelling cut,

It all changes it never stops,

Some days we are less invincible than some,

Don’t let those days catch you.
