Floating from flower to flower
We don't sleep until the morning showers
Our wings sore and out of power
The queen keeps us in our tower
Running from town to town
We don't sleep until the dusk
Our feet calloused, and dirty from dust
The king works us until our armor begins to rust
Repeating our task, over and over
We are trained to numb our minds
Our bodies are fragile and pale
The teacher keeps us until we finish our papers
We waste away, from day to day
We don't lead our lives
Our goals are to succeed in a career
The repetition keeps us steered
On a track, on autopilot
We are not children
We are adults

Description:
The poem is just an outlet for my thoughts on how it seems as though every human is conditioned to live a specific way, urged to grow up, and then conform to what an adult should be like.
I'm a depressing person sometimes. - Date: 02/04/2010
