A Poem

I don’t know what this is about

It is the worst poem

Without a doubt

In my mind

To be alone can be sublime

But to feel alone

In a room full of people

Is an act of evil

A cacophony of myopathy

Is drowning us everyday

So much pain everywhere

No one stops to care

Staring off into the distance

A black abyss

What is this world?

Has it always been this way?

No

No it hasn’t

There was a time where you could just move away

No need to pay

For anything

As long as you could find

Or make all you needed

There was no authority to be heeded

    Really great work on this one! Definitely captures the feeling so many of us have everyday about what the world has come to!

  • An evil known by far too many every day, my friend.
