melancholy ;; poems & shit

...

Grades are getting low, the teens are getting high, that twelve year old is pregnant, her parents wonder why.

A first grader's swearing, a third grader's been raped, take a look around you, isn't the system great?

But no calls for help are spoken, the teens are smoking weed, young girls are cutting, this isn't what we need.

The marks of taunt and yelling, parents are divorced, a fourteen year old is drinking, this can't get any worse.

A little girl has killed herself, no one seems to care, another kid has been expelled, for a stupid dare.

But it needs to change, our world is officially broken, it's time to make a stand, your words need to be spoken.
