How Big Everything Seems
Hanan Al Kindi

I remember my first day at school
The teacher welcomed me with a smile
All the other little girls stared at me
Regaining my confidence only took a while

I thought life was all about fun and happiness
I never knew there were bad people around
It was like I was floating up in the air
Then suddenly I just fell and hit the ground

Now everything has changed tremendously
There are so many bad people, and a few good
Its like I was living a dream in reality
Then finally I woke up and understood

It’s just funny the way people are nowadays
Fighting, backstabbing and talking behind your back
Then there’s a whole lot of other things
There’s not one bad thing these people lack

There are many stressful and difficult days
So many, that the good moments are treasured
There are many people who often use you
The number of these people can’t be measured

Sometimes even your friends act weirdly
They just ignore you completely for no reason
True friendship is not common these days
It changes from good to bad, just like the season

Then there are people who are friendly
They know how to get to know your secrets
The moment you’re out of their sight
Your secrets are spread like leaflets

This world is so crazy, that no ones normal
War, war, war – that’s the only word you hear
Sometimes I feel there’ll never be an end
Then other times I feel the end is near

When you think about it, its funny
I mean we’re all from the same person (Adam)
But yet, we fight and argue over things
When hatred increases, goodness will lessen

Why do we have to judge people
By their appearance or religion
Can’t everyone live their own life
And make their own decisions

Everyone is going to leave this world
Nothing on earth is going to go with you
Its all about what you’ve done when you lived
It’s not about if you bought one car or two

So wake up and look at the damage
These people have caused on and on
Try and do something to help
Before the times up and you’re gone

"*****Wow. This is really good, and the message you weaved into your poem is awesomely done. I completely agree w/every word in this. The world's so screwed up and over. People judge too fast and for the wrong reason. And we hate for the most trivial and shitful things, like skin color, and how a person looks. I just wish this world would wake up or grow up. Life's too short to live like that. *Great poem, it really makes you think. :)" -- d donely.
