Because the fog hasn't lifted since this morning,
Because the toaster burnt my toast,
Because toaster settings are never accurate,
Because I smiled at a woman on the bus,
Because she never even noticed me,
Because there's a fly on the window that wants out,
Because I got a promotion and still hate my job,
Because the apples I bought yesterday are already going bad,
Because
Because I need to eat better,
Because I still need to find my passion,
Because I never learned to fly,
Because most of the time I feel invisible,
Because I need to smile more,
Because I need to accept the world and its flaws,
Because I've sometimes been burned,
Because some days it's hard to see the good,
Because
