Gazes

We gaze into the future

Thinking this is all we’ll ever need

Only to realize that life causes great misery

We gaze into tomorrow

Without even getting through today

Hoping that tomorrow might be a better day

We gaze into the past

Wondering how we could be so naive

Debating if that is what brought us to be

Yet we never gaze into the present

Maybe that’s why the world isn’t exactly pleasant

We blame the society for our shames

But we are the society that we fail to claim

We spend our days gazing

Expecting that it will make a change
