Is it what we say or what we don't say that hurts more?
Is it the F you or the lack of an apology?
Is the slamming of the door or the slap in the face?
We are all animals in this zoo called life...
The problem is we are caught up on who's watching, when nobody is ever looking
We do what we do for a reaction
We say we don't but lets be real, we do...
All because we hope someone is looking
Just hoping..
Pride and anger keep us from making the right choices...
The old folks say humility is a lost quality these days...I think they're right...
If only we would stop putting on a show for an imaginary audience and started doing things for each other everything would be good...
Love is patient
Love is kind
Love is not easily angered
And Love keeps no record of wrongs...
What is love to you? I really want to know...
Im tired of us being animals at the zoo, putting on a show nobody's watching...
Who am I?
- Q
- Everything you want to know can be found in my work...Its me, my thoughts, my feelings, my everything with NO filters.

These days it seems everything is for show. When did one's road to finding that special someone become so fake? I think it's true we(the world) think about what others will say, rather than what they really want regardless of spectators. Many people miss many opprotunities because they can't see beyond what others think. In the end only your opinion should matter. Great piece. = )
Mr. Q, This poem is very nice and I appreciate the artistry in your writing. I would be honored to learn and perform this work for you someday at a Poetry Reading. This one and the other in August. Really profoiund man. Keep up the good work.
