Right There

Life, what an interesting life I've got...
 A whole universe inside my head. 
I smile, 
I laugh, 
I cry, 
and yes, 
sometimes,
all at the same time. 
What persistent mind I've got,
when I desire something,
the whole universe revolves around it,
for a few seconds... 
What an interesting smile I've got... 
What would someone find behind that smile, 
behind that tear,
behind that laugh,
underneath this drive that takes me to paradise?
There in that universe, 
right there, 
behind my eyes?
