Reality


The beginning begins and the world forms,

Sun starts to shine as to welcome every living thing,

Animals crawls on the hard surface of the earth,

Evolution starts and humans form,

Time passes and the nature of the world is controlled by the hands of men,

Businesses in cities,

Money in people’s pockets,

Lust inn people’s hearts,

And fraud in people’s eyes,

I look around although there is plenty of space for me to walk in,

The space is very dangerous,

I’m desperately looking for someone but can’t find any,

I’ve learned a lesson in life,

Not to trust anyone,

The feelings of trust I had but went away,

The advantages they take,

The foolishness in kindness they make,

The life of yours they put at stake as if trying to make you a recipe made out of syrup instead of real pure honey and ready to bake,

When you knew they were fake,

But it’s too late as they eat you as if you were a piece of cake.
