Has the moon ever been
Too bright
Has yellow ever looked
A little grey
Has that monotonous
Sink drip
Ever been deafening
Has that nightmare
Ever lasted an eternity
Do you ever think
The right person
Is watching
The wrong thing
Or that everyone
Is selfish
Has anticipated summer
Ever been surpassed
By the coldest winter
Have you ever looked
In the mirror
And wondered
Who that person was?

Beautiful poem!!
