Hollow
In the darkness
She was the burning fire;
Among all zombies
She was a speck of humanity.
The speck that was little,
But that was but strong ;
For she didn't have to search
For feelings through books and songs.
She was connected within,
She was the personification
Of awareness and hope ,
For a posterity of thinkers.
But alas around her
Had always been robots ,
And robots did not feel
They were programmed to be selfish.
So while she still cared
She let them get the best of her ;
She let them suck away her feelings ,
Conditioned to be empty within.
For what is generation Z if not hollow ,
The hollow that even hollowness swallows .
They search for happiness everywhere,
But don't think to search within themselves.
They are plagued to be empty
And that plague they won't stop spreading.
