Esrever || Poem

Sorry for my voice, I actually had to tell myself to love myself while editing this lmao this is my first attempt in making videos like this. I hope to do more in the future, not really like how I presented the message. I'm so sorry, I will improve sooner. Sorry for the lack of videos, just some things gotta do you know haha and yes I noticed my typo in the video. If you didn't seem to understand what I'm trying to say, I put on captions for like half of the video lol

I am part of a lost generation
and I refuse to believe that
I can change the world
I realize this may be a shock but
“Happiness comes from within.”
is a lie, and
“Money will make me happy.”
So in 30 years I will tell my children
they are not the most important thing in my life-
My employer will know that
I have my priorities straight because
work
is more important than
family
I tell you this
Once upon a time
Families stayed together
but this will not be true in my era
This is a quick fix society
Experts tell me
30 years from now, I will be celebrating the 10th anniversary of my divorce
I do not concede that
I will live in a country of my own making
In the future
Environmental destruction will be the norm
No longer can it be said that
My peers and I care about this earth
It will be evident that
My generation is apathetic and lethargic
It is foolish to presume that
There is hope
And all of this will come true unless we choose to reverse it .
