WHO ARE WE?

Who are we?
Such helpless creatures
With the strength of eggshells
Shaking our fists at the sky
Who are we?
With dreams of forever
Yet growing old and die
Living only in the memories of the soon passing
Who are we?

Mouths opened wide in protest
Beneath waters of drowning
Our arrogance running for the throne of foolishness
Fit for the crowning
Who are we?
So blind to the oasis
In a parched dessert land
Falling into the pool of learning
Without the float of understand
We are mere human beings
We cry
We are mere human beings
