but
the world's gone mad
but business ain't bad
people living rough
but the bank can't get enough
we think that we know it all
but we don't do it
the sky is the limit
but there's a hole going through it

I don't think I was wrong
leaving this place
the names are the same
but it's got a different face
I've changed and I've grown
a better life I chased
but somewhere on the journey
I missed something in my haste
j a connor Mar 2024
going on a journey
to catch up with my past
I want to see it all
so I'm not going fast
look around me
things are not the same
developed the land
where we used to play games

watching the sky change colour
day to night
night to day
the real
no pyrotechnics
no perfect views
nature providing the soundtrack
welcome to the old days

under a watermelon sun
the grain of sand casts a long shadow
pointing the way to a butterfly moon
for all to follow
j a connor Mar 2024
before the light disappears I stare into the sky
clouds have taken on a tinge of colour
horizon beckons my thoughts
somewhere out there is my daydream place
where the past mingles with now
such a feeling of calm
I wish I could stay
j a connor Mar 2024
a window is a gap in the wall
glass can fill the hole
nothing comes in
nothing goes out
without the glass
we can make a difference
