People

A person will never truly understand,
Till they reach out and need a helping hand,
People will never really know,
How the longing for a person can rapidly grow,
We don't realize how lonely life is till there's no one around,
or how quickly in sorrow they could drawn,
most of us set ourselves up to fail,
how could the human race be so smart yet so dumb,
that we abuse not only others buy ourselves to be numb
