Our Right as the New Generation
November 29, 2011
All we want is to be heard and not be charged with incompetence
All we want is to hear without the thoughts of ignorance
All we want is to voice our opinion without the danger that accompanies it
All we want is freedom that extends to the children
So we fought and we learned
We worked hard in our schools and at home
We established dreams in early childhood
And chased them till we’re old
We choose our paths because we know
We voiced our thoughts because we need to
We do not wish to contradict their own
But we are the children and we need to know
© Gabriela W., Acton, MA
