Dear ETs,
I’m sorry, I cannot find a way
To bring myself to fully answer your question
Regarding humanity’s ending passage of days;
She flips page after page, anxiously trying to reach the end;
Because there will be an end,
And it will be a happy one;
Hers? She's not so sure;
But no, she won't think of that;
Problems
Modern questions
Things for solving
Some quandaries for unwinding
Queries
Puzzles
Of everything
I have this friend that I am useless without.
I know, I know,
Friends are not meant to last forever.
But this one sorta does.
It's a necessity to my life, without it nothing would be right.
It brightens up my day, and gets me through the night.
Grasping on my hopes and dreams, bringing them to life.
You ask me what I need
As if without air I can still breathe,
Without water or sunlight I'll be fine.
So
All necessities aside,
I guess I need the world.
It's a lot to ask, but
While it may seem obvious,
I simply must point out
that what I need for living
is the thing that causes droughts.
When stranded on an island
with this necessity all around
I actually could swim in it
All I need is Sydney
There is rhyme and reason why
Stranded on an island
without her I may die
she keeps me sane and stable;
She is my best friend can't you tell
"Love is not about possession, love is about appreciation"
If you love the most beautiful flower, why would you pick it?
It would die.
It would cease to be the thing you love.
So why?
People dedicating themselves wholly to an ideal
Accepting a way of life that is almost surreal
Submitting their transient needs for something greater
Solving problems on coffee, feeling like a martyr
Why do I write?
Why do you breathe?
Why do you blink?
Why do you sleep?
Why do you eat?
Because we have to.
Why do I write?
Why do you go to school?
Why do you have a job?
You start off small, you are nothing
New territory, new experiences, new chapter of life
Feeling empty and alone, but you are not
All that hard work paying off
Progression and changes
Comfort and confidence
