Useless

What if what was priceless 
named its price
If impulsivity stoped  to 
listened to advice
And what once was was twice. 


What if what was at hand 
needed a hand?
What was to be couldn't be 
If two legs couldn't stand
And all of the earth was a 
single grain of sand

What is the ocean without land 
?
A star without the sky
a question noone understands
And an answer that didn't know 
why 

If I was not me
A group had no we
An argument couldn't  disagree
And an eye couldn't see 


If a story wasn't  told
A diamond never sold
origami cant fold
And a child didn't  get old

A cry was never heard
A wound never cured
A cross noone could bare
And honesty was unfair. 

A microscope that can't focus 
A house that's homeless
A marriage that's loveless
A prisoner that's hopeless 

Like a eagle that never soared
Feet that  never felt the floor
Life can be a bore
When you have touched every 
knob and never opened any 
door

I guess sometimes wisdom 
don't always make sense 
Like a treasure that doesn't 
have two cents

Not every home has a picket 
fence
And many people places and 
things feel useless 


Useless !!!
