What is this world we live in?

by PEACEPLZjenelle   May 21, 2008


Sometimes, i wonder what the world is. i remember when i was little, and you would go out, and people would smile and laugh. and things were happy. what ever happened? there are middle schoolers, claiming to be in love. then breaking up only a few days later. favorite songs are about some girl everyone can talk fast about how good-looking someone is. and true lyrics, the meaningful ones aren't heard by the majority, because the people who sing the song aren't famous enough. peace is considered being in the same class as your worst enemy, and maybe having to talk to him or her once in a blue moon. the world is falling apart, scientifically and civilization wise. suicides are huge among teenagers and girls are just plain horrible to others for no reason. i really just want to go back. to when lyrics were words, about something amazing beautiful. love was family, friends, people who have always been there. not some guy you meet in pre-algebra. and peace, was world peace. no, i didn't live in that time. but i know it exists. it's just that none of our generation wants to try. i am. i don't care what others say. I'm going to listen to real songs, love the people who love me, care about other countries, love this earth, and try to turn this world around. if i die trying.
