The Feeling We Get

The Feeling We Get

Well, it seems like nothing I do is ever good enough,

But please try to understand that I’m still trying to arrange my stuff,

Might seem cool and immovable, but really it’s all an act to seem tough,

The Elderly say to you do this, do that, but deep within you know that it’s all still rough,

They act all high and mighty, saying we have seen it all, but you know the truth, 
you know it’s all a bluff,

But how do I get to arrange this rough stuff in my head,

To neglect this big bluff that I’ve heard,

To learn to be tough, and not pretend,

I want to be good enough, I want this to end,

But really, where would we be without the advice of the elderly,

We would be unwise, taking life so sluggishly,

Losing sight of things that could have been shown us so vividly,

Lackadaisical in thinking, we would do things so foolishly,

A note to the Elderly;

Do not neglect the mind of a curious youth,

Because left on its’ own is as a rotting fruit, lacking very fiber of sooth,

Because the neglected mind of a curious youth, produces a furious youth, who all his life just wanted to know the simple truth,

Nowadays the Elders don’t correct, they reject,

They forgive, but don’t forget,

Because your present goods, are cancelled out by a past event,

And a million good deeds, can be ruled out by a single bad event,

Elders, don’t reject us, because then you EJECT us,

Don’t neglect us, but instead ELECT us,

Because this is THE FEELING WE GET,

We try so hard to impress, but you quickly forget,

You forget so fast, I think you out ran a jet,

It hurts so badly, because it’s THE FEELING WE GET,

We want you to correct us and not reject us, because it’s THE FEELING WE GET,

We try hard to impress, but you try hard to compress, because it’s THE FEELING WE GET,

We love you, and we need you to rise to the top,

We acknowledge you, because without you who have gone ahead, this whole period of youthfulness would be nothing other than a very big flop,

I hope you try to take us in, for this FEELING WE GET, we also want to FORGET.
