I lost a friend today
We meant to meet, but never did
I won’t do that again
I said

When life gets in the way
When time slips away
My heart sinks
My love weeps
I long for another day

If I could stop time
I would spend all my time
I would be your friend
With every moment
A moment that never ends

I plant seeds
I tend my fields
Water is my life

I grow with our world
My spirit flows
While ripples of time move me

Eyes of the world
I’ve never understood
I never knew
I never grew

Now I reach
The brilliant light
I’ll never let go
I’ve grown to this fight

A world lives inside us
The eternity of life flows in our veins
The universe is present in our eyes
Without lives within

Our existence is like a mirror
The reflections are never quite right
As we look anyway
We realize we are one

Oh look, someone drew another line
A thick black line between you and me
Colored in until we can’t see

GenX, Baby Boomer, Millenial, you bastards
Why are you so not me?!
Why can’t you be GenY, or GenZ?

Who the hell do you think you are?
You sure aren’t me!

Never mind our blood
Never mind our shared heritage
I have my own heritage
And it sure isn’t yours!

I feel a rhythm
I feel a beat
I feel my heart
I feel it start

In this moment
In the center

Nowhere near
No more fear

I feel my soul
I feel the moment
I feel the world
I feel it all
