Life
goes on
As it once has
Forgetting the woes
And worries of people
Glazed eyes litter the world
Oblivious to pain
Oblivious to the fact
That other people have needs
Those glazed eyes
Wash over me
Never noticing
The love I have to offer
They look
They smell
They taste
They even feel
But then they throw me back
Back into the gutter
They go on
Pretending life is good
Pretending that everything’s okay
Pretending
Pretending that they are the world
That no worries reach anyone else
Those glazed eyes
Will never truly see
The world as it is
Pain, suffering, and worry
And yet life goes on
As it once has
Forgetting the woes
And worries of people
