Ever wondered
Why we shut doors
To what we want
And willingly dive
Into all the troubles
Of the world?

Ever wondered
Why we let everyone
See our anger and vices
And zealously keep away
From the pblic eye
The kindness and generosity?

Ever wondered
Why it becomes so difficult
To trust the other
And ourselves even more
Yet its second nature
To be jealous?

Ever wondered
Why even with eyes
We all turn out to be
Conveniently blind.
