So Little Time
It is in my deepest mind can I say this.
What does the world care?
we talk about change, but all we have is words
words to fight
words to survive
words to love
we use words to discuss problems but in the end
they are idle words.
we spend our life trying not to drown
centuries go by and there is still so little time
we scream for time
we kill ourselves over time
and all we can do is sit and stare at a wall in silence
this is not poetry
these are words in chaos
O this mouth, these hands
look how easy we will dissolve
and there won't be a trace of grain
so little time
farewell my youth
what is the value of this world with only words to clutter inside
what is the truth?
no one knows because there isn't one
people leave us tidal waves covered with salt and scars
but we learn to love between all the cracks on the concrete
what is the truth?
we must find out ourselves while we have the time.
