i am just a watcher
i watch how people run
how some kill some how
they scream and bury their
dead
i am just this spectator
i watch how the powerful
drive away the weak
how the liars win how the
murderer escape and find their
own shelter
i am just this by-stander
i look at how time pass me by
how rivers run dry
how clouds thicken and then rain
how this earth is flooded
how children turn into men
i have done nothing for i can
do nothing, except...
to write these lines and leave
them for those who know how to read
and act on what they know...
you are not watchers, you are not spectators
you are no by-standers of these times
you will be heroes soon and
monuments will be built in your honor
i am contented in this,
i just keep my mouth shut
for this i do, i write.
I just a watcher, It gives deep meanings, nicely done.
