Where has all the reason in society gone?
What happened to when a word was spoken and meant?
Where has all the fun gone?
Why do we have to go out of our way just to f*** with other people?
Why are drugs our first resort instead of our last now?
Why has self mutilation become such a fad instead of a disappointment?
Why is the music sounding more and more like everything else?
Where has the true art gone?
Why do we have to live up to the unreachable standards of the plastic people?
How come we shift the blame instead of taking the blow ourselves?
Why do we strive to become someone we're not?
Why do we take other's credit for our own?
What happened to true love instead of "f*** buddies"?
Why is the age of sexual experimentation lowered?
Who is there to listen to the "little" people?
When is the president going to do what he campaigned?
Why must we conform to one single way?
When did education become such a small priority?
When did teachers stop caring?
Why do students refuse to absorb the facts that build the foundation of their future?
Why do we believe that what we think is right and everyone else is wrong?
Why do more and more people have alter-egos?
When did peace become a physical being?
Why must we segregate religions?
Why is it looked down upon to question society?



Believe me when I say I could go on forever.

Sure you may give me answers to these question, but they are just as general as the topic and only make a circle when it's said and done. There are two sides to every story. No one can truly answer these because no one really knows themselves. Maybe hearing someone ask the questions that have been mulling over in the back of your irrelevant minds and open your eyes to see what society for what it really is. See what drastic changes we have made...for the worse.


So forget trying to give ME an answer.....answer yourself.

This was written a few years back in my "troubled teen" days. It still holds true, though.

Your a very good writer and don't think because most people don't like what your saying think other wise.

You should be proud that you can say this because many people are fearful of it.

And don't thank me I thank you ;D

Your points are so blunt and clear that they really do stick. To most people they would just click the next or skip button because they do not wan't to see hear or feel the effeect of modern society.

I hate the fact that this is what society is doing and alo disregarding that there doing this.

Well worded...;D
