Take Care

Room full of people, how could I be lonely? these days it's harder than ever to find a true homie, I'm trying to keep a grip, but I'm losing it slowly, filling our voids with mediums of instant gratification, how do you not see the ramifications? we've been desensitized and overstimulated our thoughts and subconscious inculcated by news feeds, timelines, snapchats, and the latest, pseudo friendships masking this hiatus, can we talk about something besides other people? it would be different if it were positive, but it always seems to be fecal, do you realize the power of your thoughts and words? gossip is lethal, where's the smart girls at? I'm over all these (drunk) barbies And, i've had enough of the bars and house parties,, I just wish there were some more options for a social affair, Don't get me wrong though, I've had more than my fair share I've been down that path and it reeks of despair honestly, does this generation even know how to have fun sober? You can't talk to a girl without a buzz and you expect things to be kosher? Look, i know we're young, but I won't settle for mediocre, Don't run from yourself, it's only harder as we get older, is anyone else with me? or am I just blowing hot air? put down your phone, turn off the tv, read a book, that's a dare, i'm nowhere near perfect, I'm just trying to make ya'll aware, time is so precious, quit wasting it, take care!
