Alone I am, there stood the crowd,
with thoughts I never agree,
facts that is lost with
the fastness of maddening crowd.

Alone I am, there stood the crowd,
customs being changed,
love tending to be materialistic,
care shown as part of rhythm;
that beats at regular interval.
Time flew away with loving hearts,
replaced then with stone walls.

Alone I am, there stood the crowd,
when I believed, time will heal;
gap just deepened after every beat.
Lost track of world, where
life was meandering me to.
But knew the things happening,
were not the one I wanted to.

Alone I am, there stood the crowd,
I searched for souls who
believe in my thoughts.
But met a few who lost hope,
and some who never knew,
also saw few who still;
thinks this is the way the world works.

Never did I lose hope,
I kept telling them,
what a false frame we are in.
But my words flew above head,
which is lost in the world’s trend.
Alone I am, there stood the crowd.

You've just made me get into one of those poetic moods I have been skipping for a while.

I like the way you put out your words, though Im no profession poet, I belive you cud come up with more changes. Or probably that is just your style.

And oh btw., Its better to stand alone, afar from the crowd than to rather get crushed into it.

Cheers,

NY?
