Pay Attention

Have you ever noticed at random
the blank stares of a stranger
as you pass by them and thought back on how crazy
your own life has been
then wondered into thinking
on how their lives went..
 
Is it better than yours
or possibly worse
another life in the cycle
taking its turn
around and around
in consistent routines
with no time to live
no time to breathe..
 
Excuse me, do I got your attention?!!
 
Have you ever recognized or realized
without trying,
the sighs of those crying
or the cries of those dying around you
or maybe even the whispers of those dead
behind you..
 
Lost, once written
then erased
and re-written again
on a new page
day by day
until the book ends
its like the same stories
over and over
fairy-tales that never begin
just hopes and dreams ending
but yet the story is never over..
 
Excuse me..
 
So now that I have your attention
I would like to thank you
in appreciation
for allowing me to touch your mind
as well as for any poet or MC
that gets on the mic
because I believe
we all come for the same reason..
 
In search of enlightenment for the spirit
messages left in the words that we speak
and see, today my message
is we gotta start paying more attention
to everything and everyone around us
someone you know may be close
to giving up
and that acknowledgement alone
just might be what saves them..
 
So I hope that your paying attention.
