This is one of my favorite poems I have written, both for content and because the title worked out fabulously. :) Written Feb. 2008
What can I say about the life unlived
How we waste aware the hours
Trying to set a mask on our deeper soul
Conforming to a society, seeing no difference
In between every person we meet
Where have all the freethinkers gone
Has all of our independence flown away
Where is the deeper meaning
In jobs we hate, families that fight,
Friendships used for our own gain
When our days fly by, and memories
Cannot be recalled, do we live
Or are we just puppets playing the part
