    "People"

    People looking at your style,
    but they're not seeing what you are.
    People hearing what your say,
    but really listening from afar.

    People touching things you do,
    but not feeling the same contents.
    People talking all the time,
    but not really making any sense.

    People moving all around,
    but they're not going anywhere.
    People loving others here,
    but truth will tell that they don't care.

    Time will pass and they will know,
    that they've missed out on quite a bit.
    They decide to make a change,
    but things are different since they quit.

    They come back to see you now,
    but you're not there to look at.
    They plan to listen to what you say,
    but nothing's left for them to hear.

    They're back to feel the things you felt,
    but what they touch is not for real
    They want to try and make some sense,
    but try to talk and they can't speak.

    They want to make a destination,
    but now they find the can not move.
    They say they'll care about the others,
    but no one's left for them to love.

    A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

    Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
