Black craft paper in hand, you watch as the snowflakes land Your kindergarten teacher explains that each one is "beautiful and unique" But now as you look in the mirror you can see neither When you were little you used to love to catch lightning bugs You would watch them float in the Mason Jars, as the July air kissed your cheeks But you don't notice the seasons anymore, do you? For you, time passes unnoticeably Lost between the coffee breaks and the heartaches You push life aside Until nothing is really left.
