Our generation will be known for nothing.
Never will anybody say,
We were the peak of mankind.
That is wrong, the truth is
Our generation was a failure.
Thinking that
We actually succeeded
Is a waste. And we know
Living only for money and power
Is the way to go.
Being loving, respectful, and kind
Is a dumb thing to do.
Forgetting about that time,
Will not be easy, but we will try.
Changing our world for the better
Is something we never did.
Giving up
Was how we handled our problems.
Working hard
Was a joke.
We knew that
People thought we couldn’t come back
That might be true,
Unless we turn things around

It
is
true.
I love you above everything else in the world.

I think of you in the in between spaces.
In the pause before the next heartbeat.
In the clench of my chest before I exhale.
In the swell of courage before I say hello.
And perhaps, one day our lives will occupy one space, touched shoulders, clasped hands, with shared secrets.

Because
Time
Without
Him
Did
Things
To
My
Mind
