Here we are again my pretties,
A chorus of confused thoughts lost at sea.
A broken record of questions,
Incessant curiosity for what's around the corner.
But this is a day
A day I'm in
A sky so quiet
It chose me to listen
I'm in this day
A day of blue.
I didn't feel joy in that place of paradise,
Is this me sunk in a vat of viscous apathy?
I admire the cat wandering aimlessly,
Basking in the sun.
The beautiful majestic feline I long to be, free.
Then a wind surrounded me
A hug so personal
I froze.
I'm in this day,
I belong to it
A day better than tomorrow.
Skeletal branches wait patiently,
Unfazed by frost, by Mondays.
I love them fiercely
Lightning-struck scars and all.
Today is the time for me
This breath is alive
The air is mine
My lungs are the trees
This day is mine
They gave it to me.
