people drift by you
one by one
in endless waves of controlled chaos

blank expressions mask their faces
inside, hiding thoughts unknown
their world is their own.

no one looks at you.

faces buried in bright light,
searching for solace
only to be engulfed by darkness

existence fleeting.

following paths to nowhere,
black and grey draws the line
between safety and danger.

humans forgot their nature
forgot they don't need roads
all they need is each other.

woken from stupor,
fumbling for memories lost
emotions erupt!

I remember--

a billion faces,
but i'm only looking for yours.

time, where did she go?
