on days that seem so fast
it's the slow things that keep you going
stop, smell the flowers, they say
even if the road is so far away
i'm happy right now,
for better, for worse
and i find it quite liberating
i'm not doing anything
i don't do much anymore
and yet i still do
i still do a lot of things
but not because i must do a lot of things
but because i like doing them
i like doing them and it's fun to do them
when no one is telling you you have to
happiness is a word that's very difficult to describe
or so so many people say
but walking a slow pace
and living life as if it's long
looks to me like a happy face
my friend told me,
"life is short, but we've got time"
and so i'll make my life mine.
