​A SECRET

​We are all fools 
wandering around 
doing things for no real reason 
crashing off each other like snooker balls 
hoping one day we may do something of brilliance 
so everybody can say how great we are 
only to realize 
how unimportant it is to be recognised by others 
even of greatness. 
But on we go 
trying to grasp onto that passing cloud 
looking for something 
trying to find something 
but the secret is 
it is never quite what we thought it to be.
