Is it my imagination
Or is what I feel really there~
A kind of dark fog of negativity
Carrying on it a mist of despair~
I see sometimes so much emptiness
Within the faces of our young~
It appears to pop up now and then
A bad conditioning has it begun~
Youths,teenagers and our children
I hear sometimes talking without pride~
Of how empty their lives seem to be
And some even committing suicide~
Is it computer games I hear them say
Or movies on the T V~
Others make excuses many
But maybe they don't know just like me~
I heard two teenagers talking in a bus
One she said suicide would take her pain away~
I could not believe my very ears
And sat their frozen on the day~
It kind of seems to me sometimes that
Some cannot even see light at end of tunnel~
And that maybe visions of their future
They imagine seeing through as if a funnel~
Have we failed the offspring generations
By giving them all some of us never had~
And by taking away character building values
But what I sometimes feel and see makes me sad~
That so many of our younger ones
Feel there is simply no real use~
And do not wish to carry on with life
Is their lack self esteem abuse~
Is it my imagination when
I hear upon the news some days~
That yet another younger one has died
And parents ask themselves why as they pray~
This lack of love and feeling so alone
In those that should be all a go~
Enjoying each and every day
Of this I really do not know~
But I do know it worries me so
Each and every single time~
I hear about our very young
Almost out of their mind~
Their has to be a reason
For this gross amount of negativity~
And so many of earths younger hearts
Hurting themselves with lack of destiny~
I feel so very useless when I hear
That this kind of thing occurred again~
And I get so upset to even think
There's no answers for their pain~
It is our young that will be earths future
In a little time not far ahead~
But sometimes I sit and wonder still
Is that a time some of our young do dread~
Is it just my imagination
What has them think and feel the way they do~
Are there not any answers at all out there
To help them all happily make it through~
