Life’s wonders

As the years go by,

You begin to realize,

The problems we thought we had,

Weren’t really problems, which is sad,

All those years we spent trying to figure out our emotions,

Pain, fear, sorrow and love, with such devotion,

Had we put more emphasis on bettering ones self,

We’d really appreciate the cards that we were dealt,

Education, work, and family,

We lose ourselves and forget to be happy,

We’re so consumed with vanity and greed,

You forget to simply enjoy, the air that we breath,

Some people come to realize life’s gift,

The beauty and everlasting wonder to that it gives,

If it’s one thing I’ve learned,

Be humble. Don’t take any situation for granted, the tables do turn,

Welcome every moment, with a open heart,

Don’t look at the end, focus on how you start!

I’m all about self expression,

At the same time I didn’t want to ruin your first impression,

I was playing with my words in my head,

Laying on the sheet that I’d spread,

Hoping my emotions wouldn’t get the best of me,

Or that I wouldn’t come off, as being too chatty,

organic and transparent that’s all I could be,

It’s my truth it shines within me,

I assumed your intentions when you asked me out,

Still I’d like to hear what they’re all about!

You’ve shown me chivalry hasn’t died,

I have yet to witness what you have inside,

I hear your lyrics, I feel your music, your touch feeds my soul,

Let’s see in a few months from now, If we still share the same goals.
