To be

Advertisements

Out and about seemed like something fun to do.

But now staying in is the new thing to do.

Where sitting on the couch is something you rather enjoy now.

Or walking around your house trying to find something else to clean or finally get too.

Soon you’ve done a lot but still want to do more but don’t want to go out too far.

Let’s Be Positive *repost*

I know

I have to get up and get ready but I rather just sit here and enjoy the silence of this morning.

Because I know changes are still coming and I have to embrace them.

Even when they bring nothing but fear and unanswered questions.

But there is no time to panic as life keeps moving on.

The unknown becomes a daily thing that you want to know about but at same time you just want it to go away.

As if it was all just a bad dream.

You wanted

Me to follow you

And now that I’m on another path.

You want to be close to me again and I wonder what is happening.

Is it regret or boredom or both.

I stand here wondering how you ended up feeling so lost and wanting out.

And I don’t know how it will end for you but I hope it ends with satisfaction.

Where did

You go when just a second ago.

I saw the bubbles moving and now nothing is coming my way.

I wait and wait until times seems to fly by and I’m done waiting.

I want my answer but at what cost.

I guess I will not ever know for you still haven’t answered my questions.

Three Line Tales, Week 216

Be close and now it seems we are so far apart.

And it’s not because of this social distancing to keep us safe.

But, because we let time keep going by until it was so long reaching out seemed to late.

Now I just want you to be safe and I know you will make it through this as you are strong,

I guess maybe later I will try to reach out to you again.

Week 216 of Three Line Tales

Used to come out and just be one with nature and the size of the gathering.

Didn’t matter but now so many changes just to be safe and health, and it sucks but it’s for the best.

It’s feels so nice out here that being trapped inside isn’t going to feel so great, as it feels outside today.

Maybe

The soft melody will smooth things over inside of me.

As I become so quiet and distancing at the same time.

For my mind isn’t really registering much lately as it’s been busy retaining so much information that nothing more than facts are floating around in it.

To say more would be probably be asking for well too much so for now this is all you will get me for now.
