By birth I’m Gen Z, that’s true, but their strange standards I just can’t do. I can’t be polite and abusive in one breath, or worship celebs like they gave me life or death. I won’t wear brands just to prove I belong, or sip on a drink and call culture strong. I can’t post my life just for Instagram views, or cry “period, slayy” when I’ve nothing to lose. I won’t call lust love, then hashtag “forever,” or stage breakups in reels, claiming “healing’s so clever.” So yes, I’m Gen Z by time and by name, but with a little common sense, I don’t play that game.

GenZ Generation
So I cut my hair And changed my barbells Switched out my hoop And bought new clothes Rearranged my room Changed shampoos But still I feel the same

Through the Motions
O ye soldiers, RISE UP! for narrow minds have, come again. O ye soldiers, STAND UP! for they make things, go insane. They grisp, they grudge, grunt the same. They grind some minds, And make them lame. O ye soldiers, COME FORTH! for these minds, they stay so near. O ye soldiers, be strong! For they are, bringing new fears. They crave for blood, whom they call, their own. For these minds, so fallen. No one is known. No one is known. O ye soldiers, BATTLE NOW! for these minds can, steal your dreams. O ye soldiers, FIGHT NOW! for are they not, what they seem. Wicked is their mind, empty is their heart. To make their time, They come near you, Come and break you apart. So, O ye soldiers, RISE UP NOW! for narrow minds have, come again. O ye soldiers, **** THEM! and hoist the flag of peace again.

Two Different Mindsets
I don't think there's anything in this world more comforting than you. More whirling and more excessively beautiful than your soul and your love. The way my chest sinks when you pick a fight and I know that I **** up once again. When you say its not important or it doesn't matter when we know **** well you'd sell your soul to get me on board. How you press your lips together and bite your tongue with every lick of anger. Because you know how draining it is; internally fighting with yourself. How you think you're not cute, and how I oppose to your negative thoughts. the way you see yourself is completely different from how we see you. If you ever for a second thought that I was in betrayal of your love, the hounds were released and all is doomed to hell. I know you care. Its so difficult not to hurt I wish you knew how loyalty surges through my veins and reminds me how good I have it with you. I refuse. ******* refuse to let you down. and let you feel like you're not the only one. Not worthy enough, and yet again make you upset. I don't have the heart for it. Don't you dare yell at me, you're way too cute when you do. Don't you dare make me want to kiss you, and just stare for hours into those gleaming eyes of yours. You are everything. you don't know it. but you are, and you refuse to let yourself believe in it. but it's the truth. you're the world in a bundle of undivided love. and you know what? i love you
