THE WORLD

Nothing stays the same,
as you get older, things change,
the world, relationships,
physical pain - things change,

the hours people committ
and never really live,
or see the real importance,
the time you can't relive,
-family and kids,

we relish in the ego,
superior complexes,
moving parts in a social design,
red flags
...on how the stars should align,

Intellect,
paychecks - on to the next,
and little time to reflect,

to see who we really are
- human beings, without seeing,
trading a gift for the almighty
dollar, and the self getting
harder and harder.

tools in the greater scheme,
and our true self left to daydreams.
