Sometimes I think about…
stupid things
love I should have given
or gifts I didn’t bring

Sometimes I think about…
little things
a little child beginning to walk
or a tiny bird learning to sing

Sometimes I think about…
important things
wars not worth fighting
harsh words that leave a sting

Sometimes I think about…
me things
words I should have spoken
or hearts I left on a string

Sometimes I think about…
dying things
the truth is not worth repeating
so everyone goes around lying things

Sometimes I think about…
why things
are people that important
and can’t it always be spring?

Sometimes I think about…
black things
the sky before a storm
proper dress for ballroom dancing

Sometimes I think about…
good things
the sun that’s always shining
or the beach when I’m vacationing

Sometimes I think about…
you things
why you always left
when times weren’t so good things

And sometimes I think about…
laughing
when I’m all alone
doing nothing
