Think
Think.
You are a living, breathing, being
In this life of so much meaning
But do you think about your beating
heart?
How does it work?
How are you alive?
Do you know your purpose?
What’s your design?
Do you throw yourself in front of the train
onto the tracks
Just to see how you'll react?
See if you react the fact is
It’s all just an act
So abstract
Or do you stop to smell the rose that grows
Amidst the torrents of rain pouring into the concrete
Because there's so much that we don't know
And if you don't stop the whole world just might close
in on you
See because this life is insane in vain please explain my brain
Hurts.
Am I sane?
Caught up in this game of life -
So much to see so much to
gain.
But when you cry
do you ever think of the complexity of the process of one teardrop falling from your eye?
The emotion behind that single drop,
The power it contains.
Maybe it's the joy of laughter,
Or the grief when your father’s heart stopped.
And somebody once said that I can come up here and I can tell you that I am sad
Or that I can come up here
and I can tell you that I am so numb that when I look up at the blue sky
I feel nothing.
That's the twisted complexity of the mind.
Seeing nothing when there's always something.
Think about the last time you
saw that sky.
Do you even remember?
Or did you commit the crime
Of overlooking it all?
The transduction of light waves into neural signals that fire
and inspire and allow you to see
The hues.
Blue, pink, orange, red, fading into black
LOOK
Do you see it?
Do you see it?
You have to STOP
And think about it.
