Fly

This world is round
But the people are square.
Fall to the ground
And they all just stare.
A broken soul
But nobody cares.
The silent sounds
Only you hear.
They scream whispers
In your ear.
See terrible things
But no one else is near.
What will you do
When the world rolls away?
No one will believe you
When you don't know what to say.
Nobody will understand,
The sky will turn to grey.
But stand your ground
Keep your course;
Don't be led astray.
It's not your fault
The world is blind.
They'll be the ones
Left behind.
You will spread your
Wings and fly
Away from all unkind,
Fly high.

    Very deep sense!

    It is a very emotional poem! And keeps inside deep feelings and sense! And there is the truth as well! Especially the end of the poem, is very deep!
    But still there are always people around, who understand many things, just maybe afraid of sharing their thoughts...
    Great poem!
