This poem is about one thing, but could be about so many other things that dictate adult life. And yes, we might win the battle but lose the war. And adults may lead, but we are the example to younger generations. It's teens like you who I hope will lead the world with your strong convictions (and may they stay true as you grow). The 5th stanza (plus the rest of the poem) is wonderful, because it applies to the mindlessnes of what we sometimes forget. Thanks for reminding people like me.
