To Our Young Men

Watch videos.

Share memes.

Record TikTok.

With your mood,

Swap phone themes.

Play games and think

you are being wise.

Give up on outdoors

and never exercise. 

Watch porn in your bed,

Then, feel lonely and sad.

Wake up sick and late,

to avoid the class test.

Throw the dinner plate,

On your momma's face.

Slam textbooks

on the table.

Open Facebook,

down your table.

Go on long rides on bikes.

Open camera and take a selfie.

Upload pictures and get likes.

More likes and think yourself wealthy.

The whole long day,

Scroll down Instagram.

Be busy by being online

And that's not a crime. 

But, listen to me, child, 

Do not waste too much of your time!

Young man!

Once I've been told,

"The pleasure is gold,

That's what we've been born for."

But, You are losing diamonds.

Child, do not play blindfold.

I've been a Jerk too, 

I regret. 

One day you will know this

Here, I bet. 

This train is going so fast and 

you are too late.

Before your hand could catch,

the fish will jump out of the net.

I know you are not weak,

Quite intelligent, not a geek.

You're Grownup.

You hate when momma rubs your cheek.

Loads of stuff to bother you, 

And you always want the freedom to pick. 

Yes, I respect your views,

They are always hot and brave.

But, there's a demon in your logic,

Don't be it's a slave.

Young man!

You are our future.

One day,

You'll be the teacher.

Like me, 

You'll teach your child,

How to behave!

"What to do with this time,

where to spent and when to save".

Young man.

Be kind to your elders,

Always keep your heart open.

Someday,

We'll need your shoulders,

when our backs are broken.

Of course, 

there will be days full of sorrow.

Is that makes you shit on the road that leads us to our morrow?

No one is perfect and 

there are things, we all lack, 

And then we learn to borrow.

Young man,

This is all yours,

Pick whatever you ever wanted.

But, 

Stop taking things for granted.
