What do we see
nothing of any meaning

Looking for something we look down!
What do we see
Again nothing

All we want is to see something we can make something of

Some people spend their whole lives searching for this something
They never know what their looking for all they know is that their looking for something
Some people never find it and some think they have but never know
because they never knew what the were looking for in the first place [comments] => 1 [counter] => 133 [topic] => 21 [informant] => twilightbaby [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 4 [ratings] => 1 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => Lifepoems )

The confusion of looking for something in life to give it meaning, and yet maybe at the same time wasting life looking for it instead of living life,really like the concept explored in this,challenging write
