Once upon a time
when we were born
We were innocent and always smiling
We were loving and charming
We knew this society was everything we admired
We had love for every one
Family,friends and strangers
We embraced pets too
Because they gave us company
We never knew what hate meant
We never heard of death
And we were innocent of the satires of society
We were young and ignorant
Blinded our eyes were
Then years went by from childhood to teenage life
That opened our lives to the mess around us
We developed a second person within us
Out side we were different
Inside we were different
Fingers started pointing into us
Bad eyes looking at us
We feared,everything was changing
And we were being judged wrongly
We felt out of place more
Society had really changed on us,
It made us change our life style
Society lied to our innocent minds
Alas!it was too late for us to recognize
We became social media addicts
Looking for fame
We felt our names had to be written on stone and not sand
We only wore expensive brands of clothes
bought newest types of phones
sipped expensive drinks
This is what we thought was a life
We were so careful with everything we did
Because we knew there were eyes looking and judging us
We lived in a life full of fears and regrets
We were like robots controlled by society on how to behave
And so we faked it all
To fool the gangs surrounding us that we were ,what we weren’t
We had become so reserved with our feelings and actions
We never wished to be cowards
we wore fake faces
to lie that we were always okay
we learned to be outgoing
even when our hearts were depressed and shattered
We lied that our hearts were made of steel,to never feel any pain
We learned to gossip,we learned to hate
we learned to discriminate
we learned to hurt others,
Because we thought we were better than them all
We learned to walk away from those who loved us,when we thought they were no longer our grades
We now only lived to please the society than pleasing our heart
We begun losing ourselves on the way
We begun hating life thinking it was hard with us
We became images that people fell in love with but inside us we were completely different
We struggled with society
We feared sharing our fears
We were losing our way,losing our pride ,losing our hope,losing our life
Look at what was happening,teenagers being killed by our society.
