Poems Inspired By Great Humans

"i desire umm maybe free will or completeness. I hate inequality. I love books and humanity, and the world consumes my thoughts."

The way the earth folds

And is an everlasting circle

Blows my mind

How 7 billion people

Walk the same earth I do

How millions of generations

Have walked on this land

As I step

And step

On the same grass they have

-

And that tree,

Lovers laid there

Their tongues caressed

Until their bodies intertwined

Creating a form of art

And a symbol for love

Before it became meaningless

-

The road

That lay outside my window

Was built by men and women

Working for money

To provide a home

For their big families

And when the day is over,

They return to said home

And kiss their spouse

And listen to their children talk

About their school

And their tiny human problems

Because they know of nothing else

-

Isn't that funny?

We know of nothing when we are young

We don't know that we will love

A young girl

That puts flowers behind her ears

And a boy

That plays with cars

Because it reminds him of his father

-

We don't know

That one day we will cry

So loud

That we will muffle it with our hands

Because our heart is split in two

-

We don't know

That we will see the Eiffel tower

And Italy

And Georgia

And walk along a famous bridge

And swim deeper into the ocean

-

Ah, humanity

So curious

And fascinating

I will forever be in awe

Of the way the world works
