Ode to Averageness.
Oh to be average,
how comfortable and sweet,
never first
never last
but always at the meet.
Oh to be average,
what would I do without your bounds,
When someone you love is ripped from your armsOr how you realize what you are doing wrong in lifeIt's a single momentA second in timeThat the entire world seems to pauseJust for you
The stories we grow up with aren't always what they seem
if you took a step inside, you might find that it intrigues
only those who have an eye for it, can actually see
What does a father do?
He lead and cares
with honor and truth.
His strength is comforting
His mucles are proof.
He fights for what's right
in the midst of the storm.
How long will you wait for me?
"An Eternity" they say.
I don't think you know
what that literally means
in any literal way.
You think you can wait forever,
Wait?
Have you ever wondered what Eternity is like?
How far is it?
How wide?
What is it shaped like?
A circle? A square?
Can it be described?
You might say it's never ending
Sleep is for the weak,
or so I've dreamt it said,
by the people in my dreams,
while I lay upon my bed.
Sleep is for the weak,
and the weak lack sleep,
and the ones who say this phrase,
Wow, this is such an honor,
I so glad I had to come,
It was great that I could meet you,
I so glad you had some fun
No, I wasn't in a hurry
take your time, I mean it
Look all around you and tell me what do you see?
Are people fighting for originality? Or hungry to be like you and me?
This world lacks individuality, imagination and innovation.
I exist within a beat
A moment of synchronized sound.
An instance, determined by an ongoing tempo.
Is my mind so unoriginal,
it can't think in another way?
My thoughts have turned sappy
Since he came around that day.
I love him, I love him
He loves me too.
I want this for forever
