Do you ever wonder
if all we know
is all there is?
Do you ever ask yourself
if you’re missing out
on something else?
Are we truly alone..
or are we being watched?
Are footsteps following us,
or are our thoughts not ours at all?
What if there’s something
beyond this world..
beings aware of us,
watching everything we do?
Do you think they wonder
what we’re doing with our lives?
Do you think they pity us;
seeing how we live?
Waging wars.
Killing children.
Oppressing. Tormenting.
Polluting, warming,
destructing, depleting.
Do you wonder
why they fear
showing themselves to us?
Maybe we should see ourselves
from a different view:
a little farther away,
a little more honest.
Then maybe we’ll see
who we really are:
beastly, inconsiderate,
lacking compassion,
lacking love.
So look in the mirror.
See yourself.
And ask:
when you leave this world,
what do you wish
to leave behind?
