Think Again

Through the breeze Standing in the open The window so clear. A pink twilight Getting late at night Looking out into the distance. Thinking of the day Time just ticking away Everything so peaceful. Up close the sun is setting Far away clouds are coming in Dark as a black hole. Things finally start setting in Time slowly ticking on Standing at that window still open. The winds start picking up Lightning fills up the sky Thoughts start to lead to why. Thunder crashes down deep Standing becomes so weak Life feels like it might end. A foggy dust appears The storm is near Chaos and havoc brings tears. When it ends Learn to play pretend Fear dies in time. Tears will dry up Sun will shine again Just lie like others do. Feelings so numb Looking out that window so clear Blue skies all around. Put on a smile Laugh and play No one will know about that day.
