The Value in People
Friends and family are valuable. With them, your problems are solvable.
I grew up without many friends, yet I made acquaintances in school
Distancing myself from others, I was truly acting like a young fool
I was a fool because I did want friends and I despised being alone
To this day I still do, finding comfort in voices that come from the phone
The loneliness that I dealt with made me more self-aware
People ask me about my current state, do they really care?
My progress in life means nothing, why speak of meaningless affairs?
I've grown judgmental of others, whilst I still stand in front of my stairs
I wanted to seek wisdom without having to stand next to someone
Yet it takes wisdom to know that wisdom stems from everyone
I need others to learn about the world and what it has to offer
I won't find success by myself, for the ones next to me hold the great coffer
