Speaking as a teen,

After reading through all the intros, I had an idea for this. I hope you all like it, being that you're the inspiration.


We are the truth,
Speaking the words others fear.
Possessing power illimitable,
Underutilized.
Living with clarity.
Seeing all.
Feeling acutely
Anger, sorrow, hate.
Joy, ecstasy, love.
We believe in ourselves 
More than in society,
Yet we strive to please it.
Never stopping to sleep
Or even breathe.
Infinitely vital.
Underestimated.
We are the rising generation.
We are the future.
We are your future.
Start believing in us.

  1. Love the last line, cause I feel like adults hate us, which is really awkward, because we're just the reflections of them. They teach us.

    Way to take a stand. We're the names in tomorrow's papers.
