The Alienated World

If you realize you were not awake

The soul has been in slumber all this time

Pacing through life with a trance-like feel

Never have the true emotions surged above

Or breached the set boundaries of life

The morning through night, a futile journey

Only the body is awake, the soul is unaware

Heart beats mechanically to keep you alive

Noises drown you and you miss the plea

From your inner world, calling for help

Unknowingly, you walked away from yourself

Alienated the feelings and buried them deep

Every day, a chore to walk with a numb mind

Clamor for winning the race and hit a cul-de-sac©
