Why


is being lost a bad thing

young souls trying to find themselves in the mix of things

but also working everyday just to make it

the media, the parents, the teachers, all watching

waiting for the next mistake

rather than praising the newest accomplishment

trying to find the good in all the bad

bliss is different for everyone

for some it's in a library sniffing books all night

others partying, drinking, dancing, laughing,

being a kid in this generation is hard

phones straped to our sides like a weapon in war

posts become more important than the people infront of you

wanting more followers than real converastions

twitter, instagram, facebook

taking our attention away from the people who need it the most

why is being lost a bad thing

when everything that is lost can be found
