People

People live, people die,
People laugh, people cry,
People love, people hate,
People don’t appreciate.

People talk, people sing,
People do, anything,
People want, people steal,
People forget that life is real.

People smoke, people drink,
People smell, people stink,
People lie, people hide,
People take life for a ride.

People whisper, people shout,
People trust, people doubt,
People seek, people find,
People always stab behind.

People aren’t really that bad,
Just lost the good life that they had,
We can change, change our fate,
Change our present living state.
