The way we are…

Candles burn; not for self but for all…

In self-pity it cries not, but for our ungrateful thought…

Whom constantly belittle its graceful fall…

We’re woeful creatures; full of ourselves…

Ages to ages, this is just the way we are…


“Excuses” are our faithful friend; a child, teen or man…

We get through each day riding on such stead…

Buying us way out of trouble in no speed…

“Accident's” do happen; and yes, babies come with them…

Humans are “beasts”; We are the way we are…


The tongue is a useful ally; while we boast and spread envy…

It is what that made the hypocrites look pious…

While masking behind the mortal-Divined revelations…

Bending rules and feed themselves full…

Of the poor and needy; it’s ugly, but it’s how the way we are…


Only those who fly have wings…

Men don’t, therefore we hate those pretty things…

Not wanting to lose out, Icarus wield his own to join the birds…

To his own ego and defiance he met his end…

Man are not destined for what they never can…

We never learn; and this is just the way we are…


While the women fought their way up far…

They seem to forget; some things are not meant to be on par…

The moon reflects what’s given by the star…

But the sun commands nothing in the presence of moon and vice versa…

Like it or not, men and women are the way things are…


Once fallen, one hit hard onto the ground…

But would one able to stand up, and go for another round??

Once lost, one goes astray into the wild…

But what are the chances of being found??

One often lives in self-denial; That’s just the way we are…


Reaching dreams make one struggle for perfection…

But dreams often happen in one’s sleep…

Shall one drop his guard and let his chances slip…

Or instead keep wide awake and reach for his destination??

To most life’s a delusion; We, after all is just what we are…


“Where is Thy love?” the world often asked…

“Give us guidance from above!!”…

Smirking, God replied, “Hadn’t I sent you Love?”

“You refused to believe, and would not faithfully serve”…

We think that we’re wise; in truth are foolish beings…

We are just the way we are…
