OUR FUTURE? (Free verse) by kliq
I gaze into my crystal ball
And it tells all
We have to expect the worst
Now and forever
Until then.
I see soldiers looking over us
Cameras tracing our every move
We will be little more than ants
Seen in a globe.
Dead bodies decaying on the floor
People will not raise an eyebrow
This is the present.
A lost generation from the last world war
A civil war is brewing.
No freedom, machines follow us.
Someones always there.
We'll never be alone, love is banned.
Respect will be the truth
Because love was found to be a liar
And cold respect tells us the truth
It does not allow us to get hurt.
We are ruled by people who comand respect
But crave love.
Our job is a social silence
Just an excuse to survive
They'll dispose of you when your job is done
And we wont know when this becomes
Everyone has a clone
No individuality, we each are disposable
And dispensable.
Babies are created in test tubes
They are now made and not burn.
To them, this is the real world
Not a pitch black fantasy of a crooked man
Is this is the way we are going?
The sun melts our skin and it melts our heads
So we don't rebel
If God has abandoned us then he has done it too late
He was to blame for everything
Now it is our own sick fault
He cannot be blamed
The bible is kept locked
We have forgotten how to read it
Writing this has been hard for me
Because I can't remember what words are
Is the way we are going?
Culture is a pickel jar
And we wont complain
Because this is the way we are going!
This is our future!
