More out there than meets the eye?
Is your world so small, that all you see
Is that we live, we breathe and we die?

Can't you see that there's more out there,
More than the dollar and cent
Way much more than a bank account
And how it's not to be spent

Can't you see there's more out there,
To touch with fingertip?
Man never learns till he tilts head
When bound to a sinking ship

Can't you see there's more out there
Just look into my eyes
There's more than you will ever know
There's wonderment and surprise

Can't you see there's more out there
There's more outside your door?
Open your eyes and take a good look
It's what you've been put here for

Can't you see there's more outside,
There's more than you will know?
The beautiful thing is we're not alone
We just need to learn how to show. [comments] => 1 [counter] => 175 [topic] => 43 [informant] => Mystic_Beauty_nz [notes] => [ihome] => 0 [alanguage] => english [acomm] => 0 [haspoll] => 0 [pollID] => 0 [score] => 0 [ratings] => 0 [editpoem] => 1 [associated] => [topicname] => oops )

excellent poem. you conveyed the concept well. would not be so hard for you to accomplish a strict rhyme scheme with the looks of this poem.

Poetry is much like a great photo, a single "moment in time" capturing many feelings and emotions. Yet, they are very alive; creating stirrings within the readers who form visual "pictures" of the expressed emotions within the Poem. ©
