And Breathe

Laying here looking up to the skies
I can hear the ticking of the days
slowly rolling by 
Looking up
I see a cloud and wonder 
what is it all about
and then
I ask the question 
Why ?
Why can't I scream and why can't I shout?

My TV never turns on unless its by itself
My TV never turns on
The remote is on the shelf
My TV in all honesty
Is not good for my health 

I think it best 

Laying here looking up to the skies 
I can hear the ticking of the days 
slowly rolling by
