Simple words can carry the sweetest meanings,
And complex thoughts often are too confusing,
Wisdom is found underneath your nose,
and love is found when you let go,
Of old grudges and fears, of jealousy and bitter tears,
and that’s when you can hear those who say,
I love you, who have always been whispering
it in your ears.
Its funny to think that the most important things
are right here, but sometimes we look too far,
for something beyond what’s real.
Better and better we think it must be,
uncontent with each one of our things,
Simple is the truth, that waits right in front of us,
and stupid is the fool that walks right by,
when its right there, like always,
is just before their feet.
