Youth, we hope, will save us
Our youth, “their” youth
Any youth–just save us
We hope youth and innocence will protect the kids. Any. All.
Just protect them.
It doesn’t work that way.
Kids die. Cancer. Bullets. Cars.
Fire. Drugs. Noose.
In the end, we all lose.
We barrel towards death never knowing when we’ll be stopping in the snowy wood.
For now, all we can do is hope and do good.
