Today

Today I saw the rest of the world No one noticed Cause I curled Under a tree pondering the meaning On the faces passing by Too nervous to cast an eye to eye They pass me by, they pass me bye Today I fell in love with the sky It kissed my face with it’s watery grace And I loved it back with my eyes The clouds smiled at me, Extended their hands and carried me Away away away, today Today I caught a peek in a pond My face was worried and wet and wound I stared at myself and everything else Was gone a moment of complete Self in fat you a tion Feelings that fit into our shell fish Nation Today I fell asleep on the ground I woke up and no one was around My song forgotten on the leafs My thoughts as carefree as the breeze And no one understands it all We’re lost and eventually We fall Today today today Is just like the day before and yesterday
