Refocusing Life's Lens
A constant buzz of busyness
Continually swarming us
Easy to get dragged down
Caught up in the fuss
While in the moment
All you can say is c’mon
Poked like a voodoo doll
The pain keeps piling on
Balancing your emotions
What a rollercoaster ride
Walking on a tightrope
Just trying to get to the other side
Starting to change my stance
What I viewed before as a hinderance
Is actually where the happiness lies
Just couldn’t see through the interference
Zooming out my focus
Seeing through a new lens
Realizing the small moments now
Are really life’s little gems
Daily drama no longer a downer
Instead cherishing my mess
Because when it’s gone for good
I’ll remember these times were the best
