What should I do?

by nahke

What should you do when even smiling becomes overrated; when feelings are history, and emotions are mysteries? What should you do when you've loved, and lost, but the pain created by loss, over mastered the love you've received? What should you do when all you wanna be is yourself, but society declares that girls should look like Barbies and guys should be like Superman? What should you do when you want to have a face-to-face conversation, but your inner-circle is too busy scrolling down the outer-circle's timeline.? What should you do when all you want is unity, but racism is ascending faster than a race car on its last lap? What should you do when you're scared of what tomorrow holds, because of the results and actions of our generation being obsessed with saying "YOLO"? What should you do when you have everything you've ever wanted, except happiness? What should you do when you want to live, but all that there's left to do is survive?
