"ocus" poems - Hello Poetry

"but where is my tomorrow," said the ticking of the time this alternate reality is slipping through my mind I cannot seem to focus and I never want to sleep instead I lie awake beside the loneliness I keep there's only so much human any person can embrace before the roots of truth begin to spread across your face I have not measured hours long enough to see them through I'm changing at a pace I cannot possibly undo wherever I am going and wherever I have been create the kind of future I could never settle in these feet have walked the deserts and the mire all the same I would not even be without the dryness and the rain

"but where is my tomorrow," said the ticking of the time this alternate reality is slipping through my mind I cannot seem to focus and I never want to sleep instead I lie awake beside the loneliness I keep there's only so much human any person can embrace before the roots of truth begin to spread across your face I have not measured hours long enough to see them through I'm changing at a pace I cannot possibly undo wherever I am going and wherever I have been create the kind of future I could never settle in these feet have walked the deserts and the mire all the same I would not even be without the dryness and the rain

Focus on the good, and Remove the bad/negative in your life. Look with *"fresh Eyes"* and See the beauty that this world Has to offer..... Except we're destroying our world and each other Yet no one cares. We need to wake up, and Each of us make a change---Together we can Stop this and make our world better!
