Now

Our youth is affected by those around us
For better or worse we are a product of those days
And nights
Some never know love or care
Some are lavished in excess
 
We carry the baggage
Affecting our vision
Tainting our understanding
Causing future fear
Making us forget
Now
 
Regardless of the lies whispered from behind
Irrespective of misconceptions for tomorrow,
What we think we know,
The things we think we believe
All we have is now
 
Work through the mazes of your mind
Cast off what hinders you
Now is the time
This moment sandwiched between the past and future
This is your time
Now
