Poems...?

                                                               

I wanna hear a poem.
A poem about why society is letting people get away with things we’ve never seen before.
A poem about why most teens have no place to go,
Where  12 year old get drunk and high, and don’t give their future a try.

I wanna hear a poem.
A poem about why many of those helpless people don’t have a person by their side,
To give them hopes and get them to understand they have a certain amount of time.
A certain amount of time to be someone greater in life and may not live with the dissatisfaction.
He or she could look into becoming a lawyer who spends his or her days and nights on a good advocation.

I wanna hear a true poem.
A poem that isn’t full with words that have no meaning.
Or a poem that is just harsh and demeaning.
You know, those kind of poems in which our lives can take a little piece of it.
Where every word and phrase sticks to you and isn’t something you easily forget.

I wanna hear a poem, not just any kind of poem.
That kind that speak about why we are so full of ourselves and can’t get over the ego we own.
A poem that gets you to reflect on everything you see when you look around.

I wanna hear a poem where our nation, “The Melting Pot” as we know it, can come as one.
Speaking about stopping our bickering towards each other and gladly renounce peace has won!
I don’t wanna hear a poem about who is wrong and who is right.
Not even a poem about who is stronger and won the fight.

You know, I just wanna hear a poem.
