Back In Time
Do you remember back in time
when life was so beautiful,so calm?
when things were not spoiled by technology
when people could see each other often?
Then days came when life is fast,
when horizons above us is hard to stare,
when the noise and traffic,and the digital
world takes power...
Do you want to go back in time
and think for a minute what is there
to remember,to appreciate or reject?
Maybe you do,or maybe not,
it is always your own choice.
Life teaches us what it should,
our discovery of the future
being good or bad for us,
to help or to destroy,
what do you believe the most?
And here comes the robot,
dressed all in silver and wires,
only that the wires are not visible,just the metal dress !
And it is this technology that matches you with the robot,
can't the humans see?
Not that I do not like progress,yes I do!
It is just the sadness of leaving a world behind us,
somewhere that we cannot find the way again
and the trail to bring us back.
