A Mere Reflection
The world is a mess; everyone is questioning their happiness. Some are struggling mentally, some are physically, and others are struggling financially. Here is a poem about the struggles of the world.
Hush…Hush…Sh…Sh…Sh…Sh Listen to the heartbeat of the one you love You will notice that the person you are with is not always happy with you You will notice that sometimes they pretend to smile in front of you Because all they care about is making you smile Listen closer and maybe you might realize the beats of their heart will give your relationship an entirely new meaning
Hush…Hush…Sh…Sh…Sh…Sh Listen to the silent rhythm of the ocean waves on the beach The waves could possibly be whispering a song of some sort to you Inviting you into their magical world Listen closer and maybe you might realize that what you thought might be wrong and that the ocean was not singing to you instead it was crying for help
Hush…Hush…Sh…Sh…Sh…Sh Listen to the quiet footsteps of the thief who once entered your house It doesn’t have to be a thief It could be your oldest child’s lover trying to sneak into the house without you noticing Listen closer and maybe you might realize that you were wrong, it might be a thief pretending to be your oldest child’s lover
Hush…Hush…Sh…Sh…Sh…Sh Listen to the unique beat of the song that is playing on your radio The radio won’t always play a song with sweet beats Sometimes it will play songs with weird beats as well Listen closer and maybe you might realize that the song that you were listening to wasn’t really song, it was someone’s cries for help
Hush…Hush…Sh…Sh…Sh…Sh Listen to the couple next door arguing with each other They could be having a lover’s quarrel Or a simple misunderstanding Listen closer and maybe you might realize that they weren’t even fighting at all in the place and what you thought was totally off the page
Hush…Hush…Sh…Sh…Sh…Sh Listen to the baby in your house screaming for attention The baby could simply be crying for food or a change of diaper Or it could be simply trying to annoy you for attention Listen closer and maybe you might realize that the baby was never crying in the first place, it was laughing instead
Hush…Hush…Sh…Sh…Sh…Sh Listen to the vibration of your phone ringing over and over again Someone could be calling you urgently for something Or they might just be calling you to distract you from whatever it is that you were doing Listen closer and maybe you might realize that you were wrong and that your friends kept calling you to ask you if they could hang out with you
Hush…Hush…Sh…Sh…Sh…Sh Listen to the world around you fade into complete silence The world could be crying for your help Trees could be burning down all around you, and ocean levels could be on the rise Listen closer, and maybe you might realize that you are wrong and maybe nature was playing tricks on you
