I tried to look into my dreams but was quickly led astray.
Bright colours, bright objects that would show and then fly away.
But I looked past the brightness and saw the prettiest thing, I have to say.
I saw you, and that's why I awake every morning and smile everyday
Is my reason to be alive, to survive?
Even when I don't breath, I don't want to leave.
Am I alive, to help humanity thrive?
Even if most of those I help, would never help me.

Was I born, to help the world that we have torn?
Meant to be a lover, especially to the Earth which has to suffer.
Was I born, to live my life until I am worn?
If so, I will live them if that is my need,
for this is the life that I've been given to lead!
I am no-one.
You don't know who I am.
To you I am an alien.
To my friends, I am a man.

I come from somewhere you haven't been,
I live where you don't.
You don't know my background
even some of my closest won't.

I walk past you in the street,
and you don't realize,
I am just another stranger,
a stranger with strange eyes.
Views, Shoes.
Moons and Tunes.
Lights, Fights.
Gas and Mass.

These words rhyme,
But they are still empty,
because if they don't mean anything to me,
they don't mean anything to anybody.
You are me, I am you
being so connected to all
that when I look in the mirror
I see the universe
looking back at me
I am no poet, yet I write poems.
I am no writer, yet I write stories.
I am no hippy, yet I believe in world peace.
I am no politician, yet I have my opinions.
I am no god, yet I create.
Amazing thing, last year I did see
This shy teenage boy asked for a girl's number
and smiled gladly.
Those two teens are now together, in love.
I know this because that girl was you,
and that shy young boy, was me
