And it would be absolutely the right time
to walk into a grassy field without a hat
it would be precisely the right time to feel the heat
on my neck and feel my own rivulet
pull water down by Gravity’s insistent hand
I want some cool liquid to drink after this!

I am trying to erase the pain that’s left its mark on me
take a walk daily, take a swim daily
clear my head under the trees
dream of improvement
oh Just make sure to focus on what’s real!

It is absolutely the right time to be a free me
walking into today and into tomorrow
without sad or angry baggage to carry
I want open, free hands now

the clock ticks on as it must always
each day that passes is one less day on this earth
yes, I pay attention to any Today, since I might die any Tomorrow!

how many days will I still dream?!
how many mornings will I wake up to realize I have another day to live?
and how can I possibly stay open without writing?
