Yes , I Am Aware People Everywhere Are Dying

Yes , I am aware people everywhere are Dying Yes , I am aware people all over the world are dying So you may question the fact why am I not crying You obviously then do not come from this place We have not occupied the same air and space As here we do not cry We don't even try To show any compassion Were more interested in the latest fashion And the stock market crashing

deep thoughts, enjoyed--it is a natural thing to cry yet no one wants to cry and no one wants to see someone cry or show emotions.

I guess this is what you would say to travelers here from outer space. Can you imagine if God made us to feel the pain of all those dying and hurting around us. Wow, we would be a mess!! A thoughtful poem! Luv. andrea
