Fireflies

I left you a message, yet still no reply.
At my funeral you’d cry.
But since I’m alive
You’re only focused on your vibes.
Humans are such selfish creatures.
We seem to focus on each other’s features.
Try to run away from the truth seekers.
Someone always has to assassinate the truth speaker.
Allow the liars to dictate.
Use drugs to escape.
Like botox, we’re fake.
We have an ocean, yet we fish in the lake.
Then wonder how we’re stagnant.
Opposites attract like magnets.
Free will we have it.
Love that we have cars, just hate the traffic.
Satisfied? We never are.
There’s a whole universe, yet we’re focused on the stars.
Like fireflies in a jar
We can light up the world, yet we stay put where we are.
