How simple
A person can be
But much more to you
Feelings erupting
Burning your insides
And you think
How can someone make me feel
Dead yet alive?
Such a mistake thinking a person
Can be anything more than a person
As if they had super powers
That kept your heart beating
That kept you alive
Only to leave
Causing you to shrivel up and die
Because you thought that person
Was much more than a person
You were stupid, naive
And now you know people
Are just people and
Its the way you see
Them that makes them special
Open your eyes
You may be thinking too much
Of a simple human being
With no powers at all.
