Hey you there, You sitting with your phone or computer Scrolling through to find something to entertain yourself with Or maybe trying to forget about the world for just a moment Losing yourself for only a second Hey you there, Boy or Girl, Man or Woman Who has some chores or work to do but would rather read some poetry Who wants to write something But can't figure how to fit the words that capture the feelings Who only wants to run away and express yourself through words in print Hey you there, Doubting soul, who fears the future and what it hides Or shameful past and stupid mistakes Things you wish you could write about and accept it for what they are I write this just as you do Hey you there, I am a human too A guy just trying to mend the broken pieces and turn it beautiful again To find the love of my life or achieve something for myself Trying to fight the same but different fight we face everyday Hey you there, I imagine you reading this Your eyes glancing across the screen The tabs opened with music playing (or not) We all do the same kinds of things So do not fret, for we are all universally unique Fighting our own battles, yet looking all the same.
