I’m just saying,
just stating,
Have we lost the art of saying NO?

Have we traded our sense for ease,
in this world of survival and convenience?

We have let the darkness grow till it
sits at the horizon and floats
down unnoticed,
without a care.

I’m just saying,
where are we now in all our progress
and the rusty lies we tell ourselves
about what has grown?

Where are we now?

The winds have changed and we
have not noticed,
just feeling a gentle breeze.

Only slogans and half-truths remain.
Just saying.
