When trials and triumphs
define who we are
When man is classified
either good or bad
When ‘feeling’ becomes an obscene word
life turns mechanical of sorts
A complex web of contradictions
as grey matter rules the world
Where love has boundaries
and hatred breaks through barriers
Where future rules the present
mistakes left unforgiven
Where eyes see the world
but fail to see within
Alas, humanity has succumbed
to an illusionary world
