Wake Up!

Constant whining, pity face,
Negative energy invading my space.
Attention-seeking woeful cries,
Bemoaning your problems before they arise.

Grow up child and face your fears,
You’re so immature compared to your peers.
There’s a whole wide world outside your door,
Take a deep breath and go and explore.

Think of those with lost opportunity,
Be grateful, rejoice in your loving community. 
No bombs, no famine, no blood-curdling screams,
Take a chance on life and start living your dreams.

I’m tired of your antics and selfish demeanor,
Forget the old adage of a life always greener.
Children are drowning in oceans of blue,
You’re so self-absorbed, you don’t have a clue.
