what really depresses me today is anxiety.

One must lie and cheat themselves just to feel accepted by society.

All because of a stupid number on a monitor

What people think and what people post are completely polar.

Every day I see people selling off others' ideas as their own,

or do what they once condemned, just so that they dont feel alone.

The internet has done the opposite of its intended purpose,

to the extent that by now its a glorified circus.

How beneficial it would be if it just disappeared,

No more teens advertising that they think they're so weird

And lonely, but at this point thats just whats cool

to be depressed and hide that actually you're good in school

to have your own blog with gifs of movie scenes

in black and white with quotes showing Nintendos and collard greens

and skinny white girls unzipping their skinnier jeans

trying to become famous on the web by any means.

And to see all these people around me constantly online

wasting their time on their screens when their mind is a goldmine

that depresses me to death because i now know

that you really only reap what you yourself sow

and to see all the crops of my brothers wilt away

only reminds me that one day they will be prey.

and thats not necessarily a problem,

but it depresses me nevertheless

that all the kids will never fulfill the potential they possess

because everything people say is either fake as fuck or copied

this new generation is growing up without any hobbies

because sitting in front of a computer for 8 hours straight

scrolling through a kilometer of tumblr posts to which you can relate

is doing you no favors come the moment of truth

so please do something useful and stop wasting your youth!

I wrote these words because this needs pointing out

that were recycling everything and were in an intellectual drought

so heres teenager post number 2708

get up off your ass and let this message resonate.
