People

You love people – that’s great.
People love you – that’s great.
“We, the people” – that’s really
great. We are the breathe of the
universe… Oh wait… Wait, wait
and… Listen:

People –
The shadows’ collective of hope.
People –
The meaning of God’s synthetic
personality.
People –
The meaning of Devilish emptiness.
People –
The edge between the freedom and
the illusions. You are alone or you’re

with them, you’re loving with them,
praying or living, you have to choose
between these feelings, between these
words, between these cases and you will
do that, like the ray embraces around the

nakedness of darkness. And the question
remains the same – Is the finish’s line the
line of the start? You have to choose and
you will do that, yet the question remains
the same – wait, an answers of it will

surprise you – People show you what they
can become, when they need you, remember –
People will show you who they really are,
when they don’t need you anymore.
