Human

A poem about sad people

Human

I could feel the sadness with every word that dropped off his tongue 

With every breath that was exhaled through his lungs 

I knew he was sad before his words begun

I’m not sure why people allow themselves to be full of hate

Some people I guess believe it’s their fate

Like all their hate was inflicted by other peoples actions 

to them I guess the world is one big distraction 

Their energy flows so fast and angry like like a stampede of rhinos 

Sometimes I try to help their anger but what do I know?

I always feel like I can help them because I see the good inside 

I see the good that they try so hard to hide 

I see the sad truth through all their lies 

I see the human behind those eyes
