6 Minutes
I am confused,
'cuz things are different.
I can't see one
Thing that I recognize.
(Scary)
But I heard once,
That if you watch closely,
You see that his-
Tory repeats itself.
(Calming)
So I take a
Deep breath, and think aloud,
"Just six minutes
Before all that I know
Is back again."
In the first min-
Ute I want to panic.
I just don't know
Anything around me.
(Scary)
In the second
Minute I start to think,
"Time has passed and
I am still a stranger."
(Scary)
In the Third min-
Ute I start to doubt this
Theory of
Mine. It seems to have failed me.
(Scary)
In the fourth min-
Ute I start to calm down.
I'm still nervous
But I remember *me*
...I had forgotten me.
(Scary)
In the fifth min-
Ute. I start to see some
Patterns around.
"I recognize these things."
In the sixth min-
Ute. I am happy a-
Gain. I see that
Some things *can* be diffe-
rent. It does not
mean I have lost control
Of me.
With some things I
Am stuck, but over most
Things I have con-
Trol. I decide.
(Scary/Calming)
Six minutes is
All it takes to remind
Me that change is
Good risk. It makes life fun.
But some things will
Not change no matter what.
I know that when
I jump you will catch me.
I know that when
You fall you will want me
To go catch you.
I am so sure
That if I am hurt I
must try to get
fixed. And if I don't know
I must go learn.
So I know that
Bad things may be improved.
But I need not be scared
Of what is new.
Or of what comes
For good things do not change.
