forehead filled with worry wrinkles
eyes beneath reflect injustice
a stooped down shoulder
a let down spirit
a walk without the spring
a voice without life
innocence - not lost, just never found
creative instincts trampled and buried in the ground
a brain filled with nonsensical words
and meaningless numbers
a day filled with homework
a week filled with tests
months filled with exams
and the vicious cycle keeps going on
a race to achieve what is most coveted
a snooty university, a plushy job
lucid visions of love and lust
painted in the canvass of their minds
by the brushes of the media
a world that begins and ends with"me"
a world with no time left for "we"
"kindness, humility, humanity, peace and love"
words familiar only in textbooks
"secular sovereign democratic
brotherhood and fraternity"
words known only because
it is "coming" for a test
where relationships turnneedy
where friends turn greedy
oh what is it with them
their monotonous days
and superficial ways
