power of thought
by Abdullah Albaiti
Do’nt know why is it so hard to vent my anger
as I’m only a modern gent far from danger
my dreams, yeah its fulfilled
but my life feels like I’m bullied
my friends,my family,my wife and yet i feel like I’m a stranger
this world we live in,
or better yet
this civilization we are in
short,boring,laughable,limited
we are nothing more than a pen
even though we might come in different
colors,sizes,ink type but
and i say so, we are all limited
some might achieve higher
some might have nothing
but ask yourself,
truly,deeply,wisely
does it a make a difference??
