The world within us


Life, an ever living being with endless possibilities,

we grow to live and accomplish goals we wish to acheive

as this world we pollute, dies with us,

as our selves die aside our cells.

Knowledge can never be fully understood

for we only memorize and repeat

as if we were a humanized dictionary

trying to compete, for a higher standing and higher grades

we live on time based schedule and die in our sleep

Yes its true you only live once, if you wish to believe.

But with so much knowledge, there is so much to acheive

The world within us continues to grow.
