can we ask the society to give us back our youth?
we've only lived to serve the society and with that we sacrificed everything we held dear.
what does the society expect from us? surely they must have standards that we must attain; some vain and some just plain impossible.
they demanded for our loyalty and we gave it, they demanded for our freedom and we gave it, they demanded for our rights and we gave it, they demanded for our youth and we gave it; and now that we have nothing else to give what will they want?
we let society mold us into the beings we are now, we let them tear us apart and stitch us back together in the most gruesome way possible.
society has standards and those who are not able to meet it are the outcasts, sometimes it's not their fault; other times it's because they do not want to give it all away.
so answer this question, do you want to be remade by the society or do you choose to fight it and carve your own path?
you are the youth, the choice is yours, so take a stand and find your voice.
