I may not be the sharpest lead in the pencil
Or the brightest jewel in the display case
I also may not be one learned in higher degree
But I do have common sense in its place

My brains blade may only slice warm butter
And the Gummy bears in my thoughts a bit soft
I may only have, street smarts to lean back
But I know the difference between right and wrong

I'm certainly not the deepest layered lasagna
Or hold the brightest bulb in my head
But I know without a doubt that you struggle without
The first hand knowledge in common sense

these words are a paraphrasing of the famous words from
Martin Niemöller,
an anti-******, German Christian pastor:

"First, they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out.

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I wasn’t a trade unionist, so I didn’t speak out.

Then they came for the Jews.
I wasn’t a Jew so I didn’t speak out.

Then they came for me,
and there was no one to speak for me.”

I can see how I did a little damage
Your eyes wonder everywhere but mine
As you walk away.
I can't blame you,
I would be the same.

"Long time no see," several times he repeats
I finally forget the past
Before I saw your face today
"I know" I casually say.

I want to remember every word you say
But forget enough to not obsess

Boy, if you only knew
The million times I imagined this day
I have no motive
Just to give
Not expecting to receive
What else can I say
I was wrong
I made a mistake.
Give me a couple more days.
I'll explain this to you all the way.

I remember all the reasons I fell heads over heals
How words slip out of your mouth
As if so thirty for air
He's a child in a mans body
Awe how precious and sweet
I just fall even deeper through the night
So invested
You watch the movie
While I can't help but be watching you
Silently thinking
All the times I imagined you...
Now you are finally here beside me
We can't erase
But we can be pass it all
These funny scenes
Bring light and laughter
Things are never as bad as they seem
The worst is over
Now lets play the field
No rush
I'll treat you like a friend
I've got time

"Sometimes I walk by and see you,
Working away" He says and says
"Maybe sometime, you should check out the new place?"
He continues to say
For sure I say

And that was the day
A long awaited event
Planned
Finally seeing his face again

If you love something, let it go. If it comes back to you, its yours forever. If it doesn’t, then it was never meant to be.

In a life of black and white,
She swears shes got colour.

In this prism,
She dances freely in her
kaleidoscopic
world.

I wish I could be free like that.
