I Wonder
i sometimes wonder...
at the rhythm of the rain
the fever just beneath the skin
the shimmer of the morning dew
the feeling i get with you
where are unused teardrops stored
why are the lonely so often ignored
do flowers feel love or pain
when they're cut and given away
i wonder...
why love makes the moon so bright
where the day goes when it's chased by the night
why some people feel the need
to sit and watch their lover bleed
if the world stopped how many would want to get off
if the day is over is it forever lost
would you want to bring it back again
but only the parts that you could win
i wonder...
do babies know they fill a need
a mothers heart gladly receives
how two hearts meld into one
when you find the right one to love
could a fish swim the seven seas
how long must you wait for a bended knee
can all in life that you take to the heart
change the outcome of who you are
i wonder...
why i miss love the way i do
why are thoughts unsaid most often true
why does the heart feel a need for change
when there's the slightest bit of rain
could love be given in return
if that love was never earned
if there was no mercy, love, or grace
what would take its place
a few things that i wonder about
i only wish i could figure out
as i sit and wonder...
