Someone Close

Everyone seem to have somebody
Not everyone I suppose
Perhaps no one is ever everybody
Perhaps everyone is only pretending to know

Have you fallen in love?
Can you tell me what love is?
Have you that sacrifice to serve?
Can you do as one please?

No one I know knows
No movies seen enlightens
Time as well irrelevantly shows
And how did one ultimately learns?

Simply following what everyone says
Simply doing what no one does
There is to be no other simple ways
Simply simple is when there is no need to ask

Everyone is somebody
Not everyone I suppose
When no one is everybody
Everyone is someone close
