So Sad
Below is a copy of your poem:
SO SAD!
This is for us who are 25 and older....
There was a question raised by the late Marvin Gaye
He asked ? What's Going On with the children of today??
Benzos and Bling Bling is what they glorify
Living wild lifestyles, not afraid to die
But I see the truth, in the tears that they cry
If you look a little closer
With a deaf ear you can hear it in their voice
Too ashamed of breaking down
So they use rebellion as their force
Out the hurt that their really feeling deep inside
With no where to run, or no where to hide
So they turn to us?.
And most of us get caught up in emotions
So what do we do?
We fight and fuss
Instead of lending them our listing ear
Or use some words of love and encouragement
To drive away their fears
Now if you think about it
We were once in their shoes
Knowing right from wrong
But yet we did whatever we wanted too
I remember that one funny phrase
My mom use to say before beating me
And I'm sure you've heard it too
This is going to hurt me, more then it hurt you
O' and the other one before she walked out of your door
Shut up all of that noise before I give you something to cry for
Yeah you might laugh now
But we really need to break the curse
By STOP using words that hurt
And START using words that help
So the next time your child do something
Instead of getting mad
Just remember as parents we are the only one that can
Save Our Sons And Daughters
And if you don't understand
that's just
So Sad!
