Letters To My Love #Wattys2016

Letter Six

Dear Love,

We flip on the news

and all we see is death.

This person died

This person was shot

This person was murdered

This person was assassinated

This person was kidnapped

This person committed suicide.

What has our world come to

other than death itself.

Everyone dies from everything.

People are killing the different

because they are too

or they are too cliche to see

that different is what we need.

Other than death

there is nothing anymore

besides social media

and the lies the world tells us.

We are constantly told

that being different is wrong,

but in reality

being different is dangerous.

Different is something that no one can control.

Without control

people panic 

and they start shooting

this way and that

until they shoot themselves

from social medias gun.

Social Media,

let me tell you,

has corrupted our world

and made it into something else.

We used the be the Land of the Free

and the Home of the Brave

but no we are the land of the enslaved

and the home of mindless.
