Look at all the beauty

Rushed feet pass strangers
Lives so busy
No one even looks at eachother anymore
Traffic jam highways
Queues miles long
No one takes a moment anymore
They all just rush
Push into people
Shrug passed people
Not a word
Just irritated noises
Pissed off undertones
All gotta be somewhere yesterday
Never enough hours in the day
Always somewhere else in our heads
Always tapping words on a screen
Always half listening
Always half remembering
Counting down our days
Wishing away our weeks
Wishing away our lives
Gone too soon
Buried in the earth
Weeds and rain
No one around
Just the sound of traffic screeching past
Someone else is lost
Another life gone
On to the next one
One by one
Life by life
Day by day
...... i dare you to come to a halt
Pull over, stop running
Look around you
Look at all the beauty
