Have You Ever

Have you ever walked down a crowded street
wondering about everyone walking in the jungle of concrete
why are they here and where are they going
have they reached their potential or are they still growing

Have you ever wondered what happens in people’s minds
to their fates are they resigned
do their thoughts run in circles
do their demons spring up in intervals

Have you ever wondered why we exist
seeing life through a thick red mist
why does the universe toy with us so
for them are we just an entertaining show?

If you believe in the minds black abyss
riddle me this
why are we so alive
only for our minds to commit suicide?
