Piece of Paper

A piece of paper rules our lives today; some try to deny but some are proud to say. This object that takes up so little space can, somehow, deem our societal place. But what is this object in the scheme of it all? Why can it build us up so high, or make us feel so small? When will our world come to their senses and see, this paper does not define you or me. This Earth can be a scary place, knowing we are judged by the numbers in our banks. But if we take a step back and close our eyes, only then can we see the deeper beauty that lies. This object is not our world, and cannot make someone happy forever, so I hope one day we join our hands and defeat this materialistic obstacle...together.
