A Prayer for a Generation That's Still a Long Ways Off

Please let them find their home

Let them find the place they can rest their sleepy head and fall asleep knowing theyll be safe, 
and wake up knowing they're okay, 
and meet the day not wishing they were dead.

Let them find their home, the place thats full of warmth and joy and peace and welcomes them with open arms,
Let them be surrounded by the ones they love and let them be loved in return.

Let them walk outside and not be afraid that they will be hurt or tormented or killed merely for existing

Let them follow their dreams and passions,
and let them not know the struggle of sacrificing your dreams for financial stability.

Let them grow and be wild

Let them learn and be kind

Let them walk alongside their neighbors, both near and distant, 
and explore this Earth with peace and hope and friendship

Let them be happy with who they are,

And when they look at themselves, not see a body full of flaws

Let them make peace with their pain

But dont let them be hurt beyond recovery

Let them run and be free and let them appreciate the beauty of wind whistling through treetops, 
along with the beauty of nanobots removing tumors

Let them accept others and accept their differences
and let them all celebrate the uniqueness of themselves

Let them be happy and honest and unafraid and full of love for life

And please, let them always find their way back home
