Society & Lifestyle > Social Values & Norms Not-so-innocent little girls: How society and celebrity are affecting our children: 1 of 44
As a mother, I find myself jarred by the astronomical exploitation of today's youth. Our children are plastered across billboards and magazine covers, caked with makeup and posed to allure. Media gurus using "kiddos" to seduce us into buying the latest and greatest, "Mom, everyone's got one." Dancing babies in mini-skirts sin... More..

Tangled web of broken dreams,life is never what it seems.Obstacles from every side,wishing things more simplified.Never thinking it's good enough,calling God out on his bluff.Praying for miracles, wishing for peace,there never seems to be any release.Humbled by fear and lifted by hope,seeing yourself through a telescope.Anoth...

Creative Writing > Poetry Poetry: Reflecting on your life: 7 of 195
Where has my life gone?Swallowed up by this machine.Churning, spinning, tossed around,sliding down a deep ravine.Memories swimming, youth lapsing,unable to turn back now.Trapped within immense regret,perplexed by the why and how.Tortured by love or solitude,it never seemed just right.Exhausting my entire soul,to win a futile ...

Wandering astray amidst the wicked.I will not sleep until I'm found.Seeking wisdom, a guiding light.My restless wonder, so profound.Crushing angst, so hard to breathe.I feel as if I'm drowning.With all the sadness consuming me,I'm sure that God is frowning.Have I lost my way, evaded hope?Or will my soul be freed?Will salvatio...

Lost The wicked we will creep,deep within my restless sleep.Salvation is so deep,my pain lingers, I can't weep. Innocence, I've lost the light,future passed, seemed so bright.War I've fought with all my might,a vision sought... lost sight. Confirmed pain, I still try,comprehend, to simplify.Not knowing what, what is ... More..

In a society driven by ranking, classifications and "status," it's a wonder that anyone could ever be completely content with him or herself. No sooner than we break our budgets to purchase the hottest new garb or "must-have" accessories, the trends have changed by dawn. We are littered by advertisements glamorizing "what's i... More..
