This Is My Today

A Broken Today

By Kera DrakePublished 5 years ago 1 min read

My today is what I can make it to be

The option of choice is just an illusion to me

I find more comfort in music than any human being

This is the world I see

My today may be different from yours

But in the end death will come knocking on the door

I’m growing up in a lost generation

While yours thinks it has domination

My today is filled with violence and flaw

Because your generation thought it knew it all

Rejecting originality and putting it to shame

Is the way of the human race

My today is not what it should be

Not just with my life but with the world around me

There are children out there thirsty and hungry

Are we just going to kill of the next century

My today is a world of agony

I’m living in a world that is so demanding

Almost everything has some type of consequence

The human race just has too much confidence

My today is not like the past

But I don’t wish for my today to last

We never seem to learn from our mistakes

But I hope to see my today change
