The World - Rhianne Price
The world is very complicated,
many people think so,
things happen without explanation,
and people don't know why.
It is not like maths,
where everything makes sense,
where everything has an answer,
and where everything fits together.
It's more like writing a story,
where things just happen how they do,
there is no right answer,
and things don't always work.
People lie,
and there isn't always a reason,
you cannot read feelings like numbers off a calculator,
The world is confusing.
