Worthy

Posted by eileenmaki

How did we get here?
This place so full of ugly
Overflowing with unhappiness
Afraid of change
Unwilling to compromise
Apathetic in our misery
We stop trying
To get somewhere
To be someone worthy
And we grow fat
Within our complacency
Unable to give of ourselves
Not even willing to take
We lose our taste for joy
Forget how soft skin feels
And the sweet taste
Of a kiss.
