They, we, them |

They, we, them I’ve read these pages for a year or two Thinking! What a funny bunch they, we, them, all are Nothing more in life to do Staring endlessly at each and every review Where do they, we, them, get the time? Why does one have so much of it? Writing rhyme and prose I wish someone could tell me all the answers Ha, that’s funny For if there is a God, he alone knows. I guess they, we, them Are all, lonely, broken hearts If the truth was really known Reading others tales of woe Makes one realise They, we, them, are not alone Life! Way to go It happens to us all No exceptions. It’s sad to think too deeply what’s behind the words So many people and so much pain It’s clear to see that in ones life Nothing seems to gel for long Nothing ever remains Something goes awry sooner or later No exceptions, not always a sweet song So they, we, them, resort to spending hours in verse To make up for things missed or passed One waits eagerly for comments And gets quite terse To hear the words so often repeated Oh It’s great, Marvelous, Wonderful, Keep it up But what for, who’s kidding who We are our worst enemy Crave for attention Gloat on doom and gloom They, we, them, are no different from each other We’ll all know that one day It’ll come too soon Stare into space, a tear swells Thinking again! What if If only Who can tell one the answer Needing, longing for, all the love one can get Trying to be the world’s only mother Giving, sharing, full of love for misfortunes But still no answers yet Empty words of encouragement Maybe, all of us need them Like the pages written here They make one realise They, we them, are all one Looking into dark endless holes That fills up so much of our time We search for words anew For answers; not yet to come Will, they, we, them, ever know the truth Place together all the parts That so easily come loose in life In they, we, them Hearts.

Hello Peter... "Empty words of encouragement" unless I took this out of context, I must disagree...for I feel there are many heartfelt words of encouragement for all of the they, them and we's that make up Passions.... but you do give some serious food for thought.
