Moment


You keep searching

through your brain

for all the answers.

and it feels like walking

through a desser,

alone and empty.

you have forgotten

about your heart.

the same way you have

forgotten how to live,

but you keep searching.

you search so much

that you barely notice

how far you have come.

 

people always need some

kind of validation, and

that is the great metaphor

of life.....

we live so hard

that we barely live at all.
