Young Man

 Lost

Starstruck

And living in pain


From wishful dreaming

to never feeling the same


I'm wakeful

I'm sleepy

This cycle feels like a game


Stay high

To hide my lows

To hide my pains

To hide my shame


I listen

I see

But to feel is unforeseen


To walk this path alone

Breaks my heart at its seams


To live

Is to die

Now we're asking what it means


To live life to the fullest

It’s as easy as it seems

Have we always stared so wide eyed at the scenes painted by brewing advancements, where on one hand, we can’t ask for it to come any sooner, and on the other, we’re stricken, fearful of what is yet to come? ...

If war ever breaks out between NATO and Russia, Ukraine is certain to be in the crossfire. Seeing how Ukraine was neutral post-Soviet collapse, both sides must have seen Ukraine as an important piece in their war games, which alludes to the inherent desire for both sides to vie for some sort of control over Ukrainian territory, in a way that benefits them in possible war. Ukraine is rich in resources when compared to other European countries. It's certainly in American interests to at least have these resources in allied control The American values being upheld are being shouted from Washington loud and clear. “The people of Ukraine deserve to be free, not imposed upon by...
