Here is a poem I wrote quite a while back.... Please comment.

Their world
Here I live:
In a bright, dark world
Surrounded by crowds
Yet lonely.
Here I work:
In an intelligent, dim place
Full of inspiring people
Yet hopeless.
Here I am:
Amidst a whirl of happiness
Content; pleasure
Yet grieving.
The world so full
- Yet so empty
Like a hollow nutshell.
Where is the humanity
in us humans?
The civilisation
In our unsophistication?
The love and emotion
In our wondering notions;
The passion and feelings
In our day to day dealings?
Have we forgotten who we are
Or who we were
Simply for what we've become?
Have we lost ourselves
To worldly desires?
Money, power, politics
- Aiming to be higher?
Isn't there anyone
Who lives -
Lives for the sake of:
Living.
Who cares, for the sake of kindness?
Nurtures for the sake of love?
Aids for the sake of helping?
Finds content from that of others?
Refuses the jealousy,
The spite,
The evil,
Takes in the world with a smile...
[I have failed to find anyone...]
Reject the power, reject money
Reject the selfishness; the bitchiness!
Be one with another
Care for each other
For Goodness Sake!
Just be HUMAN!
(Sub-human - be it too hard for you.)
Come out of this slumber;
Enlighten your blindness.
Take in the world - hand in hand
Revive yourself,
Relive this life,
Have another turn.
Because if who I am,
Is not fit to be:
One of you
- In your little dreamy world,
Then let me tell you here -
Make it clear:
I am a person - a human
Happy to be me.
You find me awkward
- But then what does that make you?
