Watching Life's Play
I see people with no clothes,
And clothes with no people inside.
Some dance with joy, some dance with sorrow,
Every moment of life brings laughter or tears.
In love, we see many colors,
But here, even color fades into nothing.
Time keeps moving, carrying us along,
I see strange scenes in my own story.
In poor homes, hunger is loud,
In rich mansions, empty rooms stay silent.
Behind fancy walls, hearts stay locked,
Across the street, silent tears keep falling.
Dreams shine with hope,
Reality breaks them apart.
Hatred burns bright in some hearts,
Love lives in places where no one cares.
Fate plays tricks on helpless souls,
Truth-seekers disappear into the unknown.
