You are a Solitaire - poem

You are a Solitaire

 

A generation cannot choose to be lost

Even though many might give up on life

Sulk in self-pity in a crowded space

As if no one ever suffered before

 

But trust yourself to make a stronger choice

Refuse to be defined except by you

Consider the teachings of the wise, not the loud

And build your life by the standards you set

 

For after all, you are not a generation -

You are your own creative, industrious self
