Sea of humans

Each so alike yet distinctly apart

One grapples for money

Other craves for power

Another yearns for love

But they all pine for days on end.

One cheats for the family

Another betrays for love

While one destroys in the name of religion,

But destruction is all they bring.

Charity one does for God

One for a better life after

Another for fame

But charity they do with a black heart cold as stone.

One lives for success

While one out of obligation

And another lives to die.

But live they do without humanity.

Sea of humans

Every emotion as temporary as a wave

Adrift and afloat

Despite the ground beneath

Not a glimpse of salvation in the stark horizon

Yet mankind evolves with each passing day

For better or for worse,

No one's to know.
