I Know You Cannot Hear!

one day...
the sun came over the mountain.
You asked me why you felt so good.
I didn't know, but I felt it too.
I wanted to give you reasons...
reasons for feeling alive.
But I had no answers.
I wanted to tell you it was because
the sun came out.
I felt good..we felt good...
But I knew in my heart it was because...there really wasn't anything.
YOU FELT ALIVE!
That's all it was.
And if I could capture it..
and take it...
and bring it out when you were
so low....
I would keep it in a jar!
