it's not that i'm too serious
or too sad
or too unhappy
(okay, maybe i'm a little of each)

to enjoy and bask in the silence
because it keeps me calm and at peace
i've lived a life (so far)
full of noise and screaming and everything so loud
i'm ready to be the old man
sitting on his porch in the mountains
in a rocking chair
who just stares off
and watches the world
and doesn't need chaos
to feel serene
