Sedative
What is this life if, full of shame,
We spend our time alloting blame,
Waste precious moments in complaint,
Let youthful friendships become faint,
Use energy on hate and greed
Instead of what we really need?
Pursuit of everything correct,
Appreciation and respect,
A wiser kind of governance,
The love of shared experience.
Life isn't lived, it's just survived
Unless our honesty's revived.
