she Asked me What i Think

i think about

a lot of things

and most of them

don't stay for long

but if i had to

sum it up,

for you,

i think i'd try.

 

i think about my memories

and replay laughs

and lessons, kisses

and the first time seeing

people who i now know well.

 

i think about the near future

and try to tame expectations

and try to focus on the now

but sometimes it

gets tough.

 

i often feel like

dipping in and

out of life like

something rolling

back and forth

along the wave break

resting now and then.

 

but mostly i just

think of that

which is before me

like a map or

flower or a shadow

or whatever form i find.

 

so when you asked me

what i think

it at first seemed

a riddle, for

i'm not sure

i think at all

now that i

think

about it.
