Cogs

Little silver cogs,
They turn and turn and turn.
Working what's inside,
Making the little clock work.
The small hands they move in tandem,
They know where to point and go.
The little cogs they do this all.
Never expecting anything more than a battery change.
Now I'm a little cog,
Of something much greater though.
I'm needed to make society work...
I'm needed to make it go.

Everyone is the same,
We all work to a common goal...
Some of us find it difficult,
And some of us just don't fit together.
But everyone has their place,
Just like time it does replace.
Only the clock we move is earth,
And thanks to us it spins.

All this world does is push you down, In this endless sea it makes you drown. You're nothing special, another wave, Another note on a crowded stave.

Unpicked Flower

How would an unpicked flower feel. You have grown up alongside your friends, With no particular differences. Some may grow quicker, Some may be greener. Until at one point, everyone blossoms.

I know sometimes we think too much, Some shallow ideas and thoughts. Deeply Philosophical are most of them, Like Confucius and Marx.

Struggle

When we are really happy, what really are we. When we are broken, what are we. When we can’t stand up once more, what are we. We are human. We are human and human is all we will ever be.

Same But Different

Isn't life funny. Isn't it strange. Everyone's different. But no-one likes change. Some folk are open. Some maybe shy. Some folk are honest. Some of them lie. Some of us rich. Some of us poor.

World In My Mind

#projecthumanity I've been sitting here, Waiting, watching, Watching the years go by, I look at my watch, Where has time gone.

I stop and stare and contemplate, Peace and war, Love and hate. Killing, mugging hurting each-other, That's somebody's sister, That's somebody's brother.
