My Only Friend

watching the world go bye
i dont feel anything
i only see it as a dream
peoples words, full of wanting
its all white noise to me
sensing their demands ,i close my eyes
to only hear my own soul talking to me
asking and not demanding
my only friend,though  others pretend
its only me in the end

"watching the world go bye" "people's words, full of wanting" Interesting phrasing. Sometimes we just need to be alone, sitting in the grass, not hearing anyone and even quieting our own mind--and as you said hearing our "own soul" Nicely done :)
