Song/Poem of the Day — Generations

Generations
What is there to say about this generation of the world we love Is it tearing itself apart from all that is good and kind Are we a fading dream of humanity in the world we created Do we listen to each other or is this a fading dream In whose defense do we stand for and look to what we want
I’m just one human of this generation trying to live for me and you In a memory I’ve created for a world we can hold hands What is said about the love we destroy for wants and rights I’m just one human of this generation grasping onto to my dream Can this be so this life we created for one another
Man, woman and child of this generation let go the shots between us Oh what on earth have we done to this generation Oh what on earth have we forgotten for our future generations Generations will look back at us and say what Do we bow our heads is shame or in honour
I’m just one human of this generation remembering the love of me and for you But to my shame and my regret I am not perfect in humanity I’m wearing my heart on my sleeve for you and me, to love one another Can this be so, we bow our head in honour to the generations to come Or are we fools to remain far from glory
Do we speak of the good of humanity, what we know is good Can we show the generations to come the good in you and me, we know exist We know what lives in our hearts that desires to be seen, no matter the fears Dismantle this fear, lets love openly, lets love for love of life No need to walk so fast in fear of what we imagine will come down on our heads
Generations to come, forgive us for we know not what we are truly made of Generations to come, love us for all that we came to be, for seeking love for one another Generations to come, we bow to you in honour
