Connected
As we people live our lives this way
With all our opinions and things to say
Whether it may be love or hate
It distracts us from humanity’s state.
We think that in social media we are connected
But does it really apply when your friend request is rejected?
It is saddening on how some people have become shallow
On how their entire being is based in likes and follows.
Well my friends and I are connected
Surely they won’t betray, right?
Make sure your back is protected
Fake is the new trend and blind is the new sight.
We give value to those friend lists
Which half don’t seem to care
People solve fights with guns and fists
And we seem to do nothing but stare.
With the environment slowly deteriorating
And the tears of mother earth being shed
Bridges are what we should be building
To avoid this green and blue home being dyed.
Build bridges of strong materials
Faith, trust, and love are main essentials
Do not let it have gaps of doubt and hate
Or it will surely collapse at a fast rate.
How can we build bridges with so many walls around our heart?
When we would rather be apart instead of being a part
There is a world and a generation to be protected
It is time to cross this bridge and be connected.
