Broken Generation

The twenty-first century,

has seen massive improvement

especially in technology

for social betterment.


No generation is perfect,

And none better than the other.

Though there's something of an effect

One upon the other.


We are a generation of broken screens

on our smart  technologies.

This is not limited to teens

but to all genealogies.


We are a generation

slower to repair

damaged relations

than broken  apareils.


Our generation is full

of broken homes,

broken schools

and now broken phones.


We are a generation

which feels more remorse 

for a broken tablet than

Broken friendship.


After all old friends fade,

But phones always entertain?

And new friends are made,

While old versions can be retained?


But on the contrary,

People are not replaced

in our lives easily

as a tablet's face.


Let us value those around us.

With all their weaknesses,

they are also the ones 

who make life worth living.


Let us look up from our screens,

behold nature's beauty.

Let us put down our phones,

and have normal conversations.

Screens break because they are in use,

Love increases the more it is used.
