Oblivious

I watch them all, Walking around oblivious. That one day It's all going to end. I watch them take for granted, Everything they touch. So wrapped up In the day to day bustle.

I feel many are on automatic pilot, not really awake. Yet sadly life is so full of stress and strain for every one of us.Sometimes there just does not seem time to'stop and smell the roses'.But things like poetry that wraps up significant messages in a beautiful way, the kind you write,could help those who are searching to get in touch with their senses and come alive.
