Between the Lines

Can any help me
Read between the lines
Why us youth act like spectators
When are barely in our prime
So many stories untold
So much ignorance has been spread
Some caged like animals 
9 out of ten pregnant or end up dead
Can u help me read between the lines
Why cant we realize
We are the future, masters of our domain
My heart goes out
To every mother, to every unborn child
Who will suffer
From the ways of our world
We help in some way create
Does anyone deserve a sign
Our unnecessary triles and tribulations
For not reading between the lines
