Poem #6: Today's youth, Tomorrow's Future

Confused about what we need,

Misguided by the ones who lead,

It’s dark and we can no longer cope,

Yet no one dares to offer us hope,

Open your eyes and see the truth,

The world brews no future from today’s youth,

No future from today’s youth.

Dreams of youth,

Froth upon the waves of our lives,

Let’s see if the future survives,

Let’s see if the future survives.

Dreams are big,

But efforts are less,

Some give away a jig,

But some try to gain success,

But some try to gain success

Let’s Honor our youth,

For today and tomorrow,

To keep away your sorrow,

To guard everything including your tooth,

To guard everything including your tooth.

A region of repose it seems,

A place of slumber and dreams,

Remote among the wooded hills,

Wake up youth! To fulfil,

All your dreams,

To prove as a guardian of the future,

To prove as a guardian of the future.
