Dropped from the sky
I don't remember how I began
Where I came from
How I got here
I remember opening my eyes
to see the masses of land look like puzzle pieces
Continents, they are called
Squinting
so my eyes don't burn from the fires of the atmosphere
I landed somewhere in the Midwest
of the US
Wandering this God forsaken world
wondering what it is im supposed to do
I feel I should try to help the inhabitants
Tho they just refuse
Living a lie
Scared of the truth
I've been sucked into the vortex
that has consumed so many of these "humans"
as they call themselves
Savages
Roaming this planet in search of nothing but what benefits only them
The sex is meaningless
the drugs don't solve anything
The pain they run from doesn't quit chasing them
Why have I been put here?
I can't wait to die
Hopefully I'll get an answer
to why these people live like sheep
Controlled by a higher power
Many complain about the effect of this
Yet do nothing of it
So used to laziness
What sad excuses for creatures
What wastes of life
Whatever brought me here
Please take me
Back into the sky
