Tears With No Kleenex


When people cry no matter what the reason may be I believe that they should have Kleenex available at their expense.

No one should have to endure tears and a runny nose with no way to wipe them away.

No one should be forced to have to wear the aftermath of tears and mucus on their sleeve due to the absence of Kleenex.

However, just because no one should doesn’t mean that experiencing tear’s with no Kleenex hasn’t been the choice of millions.

Many people cry and complain about societal structure and constraints politicians place on the way we live, but these many people don’t vote.

These are people who are choosing to wipe their tears and mucus on their sleeves.

So many of us dispute law’s that we disagree with but don’t care to vote for people who have power to control these law’s.

Some of us want to experience change but we don’t care to vote for it.

Some of us want our voices to be heard, but choose to be silent the day that ballads are out.

Some of us want to give solutions for problematic issue’s but don’t care to pay any attention to issues during the time of voting.

There are too many dirty sleeves; it’s time to pull out the Kleenex.

Young people, we are the main ones who want to bring up injustice and the idea of inequality; so we need to be the main ones heading to the poles to vote.

We stress and voice our opinions about rights we feel we should have, but then when it’s time to vote for these rights we are nowhere to be found.

It’s time to put them shirts with the dirty sleeves in the wash and bring out the Kleenex.

My parents always told me growing up that if I wanted something I would have to work for it, well this applies to voting as well.

If we all want to voice our opinions within society we have to vote in order to have that right.

One for the week: Deuteronomy 4:12 Then the LORD spoke to you out of the fire. You heard the sound of words but saw no form; there was only a voice.
