All My Soul

Gen Z

This poem is dedicated to Generation Z
That's anyone born between the years of about 1995 and 2012

      We're all nihilistic
                        Lethargic
                        Apathetic
                       Desirous of all and nothing at the same time
    Fearful of numbers that would place us
     Unknowing if we will succeed

       Every single one of us is depressed
                                                    Anxious
                                                  Terrified
                                           Lost
We think of our lives and unimportant
                                    Insignificant
We wish to make change
      Without having to do much
               We have apprehensions about extending ourselves
         We want to go
                            Do
                        Live
Rebels dedicated to the cause of apathetically telling the older generations that they're wrong
               We've learned that people are joy
        And it's okay to not know who we are
             As long as we've got people
Our doubts
             Fear
                   Depression
                         Nihilism
Make us better
       We know how we want to live
And
       Despite not knowing how to achieve it,
                              We believe that we can
     To most of us
Life isn't about
                    Money
                                     It's about living
And living well
          We're softer with each other
We lift each other up
                                       We love
In a rough and wild kind of way
                  And if any generation were to change the world
                                It would be us
