Life is. . . Dreaming in color Laughing at irony even when its laughing at you Loosing your innocence and seeing the good in who you are today Accepting your fears Fearing the dark Checking under the bed for the monsters in your dreams Finding a reason to get out of bed in the morning Sleeping ‘til noon, or later Remembering why the scars are there Revisiting the past – but not staying too long Getting lost in a good book Finding your way home Knowing you’ve said too much and kicking yourself for it later Not laughing it off – because that makes laughter just another lie Knowing you’re a hypocrite and insisting otherwise Believing anything is possible – but not probable Enjoying a nice cup of tea Dressing up for no reason at all Singing in the shower Finding inspiration when you’re not looking for it Having inspiration find you when you should be sleeping Asking for directions when you can’t find your way Forgiving others when they’ve wronged you Forgiving yourself Knowing you probably won’t change the world – but trying anyway Trusting others to catch you Trusting yourself not to fall Letting spiders be – but swatting flies Wondering how you ever put up with him in the first place Feeling like you don't deserve what you have Regretting not taking seconds when you’re hungry later Spending money on coffee when you don’t have money to spend Indulging your guilty pleasure Getting lost in a fantasy Plotting your escape Sleeping on it Forgetting the golden rule Forgetting why you stayed Not sending that letter you wrote when you weren’t thinking clearly Seeing truth in every word Writing books for others Writing poetry for yourself Dreaming in black and white Realizing its not that bad Crying over lost poetry
