For my generation

It is a poem...i think. Thanks for reading.

I don't blame anyone,
I will spare the great words,
Yes, every single goddamned one,
In this world, some love's needed,
But most have only one, themselves

We were born wild,
The streets raised us,
No one looked after us,
Among the concrete buildings,
Miracles don't exist.

You never saw a single tear,
Or any fear in our eyes,
Even when there was,
You did not notice.

Instead of pity,
Spare your s****y words,
Fortune, for you it works,
All we needed was some love,
So we know what it feels like,
So we know we aint all alone,
But you gave none.
Thats how we became a cursed generation.

We don't ask for anythin,
Just some love,
A family,
A father,
A mother,
But we got nothin.
Thats how we became a cursed generation.

Nobody cared,
When we were scared,
From each other we expected comfort,
Nobody else was there,
Nobody will care,
Not many of us dare,
To say its not fair.

That is how we became a cursed generation.

Instead of your words,
Of pity,
And the s****y,
Dirty lies,
We ask for nothing,
But some care, some love.

I can not ask for anything,
But for my generation, and all those to come, i dare to ask, for one thing only.
Don't hurt your children,
Don't kill them,
Don't starve them,
Don't lie to them.

Put all that away,
Yeah, you hear right thats what i say,
In the name of generations, past, present, and to come,
I say, love your kids.

If you wont, then who will?

Author's Note

I've seen too much of kids being starved, kidnapped, killed, tortured, unloved, thrown away, out on the streets, i thought of writin a poem. Thanks for checking it out. Please, share your thoughts. Thank you.

Yes, each generation bring something new, and hopefully something useful. But for that, we all need to be treated right, given a chance. Thank you very much. :)

Wonderful job, Danny. It captures the unfortunate harsh realities of life in our modern world in which it has become politically correct to make excuses for fractured families and dead-beat dads and drug addicted moms and everything that you described.
The children always bear the true cost of the ills of society; it hardens them and destroys the goodness in them...
...and the cycle just continues.
Thanks, Danny. You spoke up. Let your voice be heard. "Enough is enough."

So powerful! Finally, some great power stood on the side of righteousness! The incredibel power of your poetry! This touched me, for it holds a priceless message, and it feels to be brutally honest, coming from the heart. The cases reported on the news must have really touched your soul. You really are a most amazing, powerful, young poet, my friend. Keep sharing your ever so important, amazing poetry.

Yes we must love our kids. The message is beautifully expressed here but I must add that most of us also tend to spoil the kids with what we consider to be love; thereby leaving behind kids who affect others. We must love our kids and also teach them never to hurt others...

[Dani The Unreviewed]

Yes, you are right. I was just hearin a lot of evil stuff on the news, so decided to write about it. Thanks for readin, and the input. :)
