I'm living in a moment a memory a place
A place I can't go back to or at least not today
For today I am immobile bound to my bed
Today I cannot look up because of my sore head

I think of colors of flowers of tulips for miles
I think of my camera in hand and all the longing smiles
The smiles that radiated light like the sun
The smiles that worked their ways into my photos

I'm trying to breathe to live to laugh
I just end up coughing at the thought
The thought that I could return to the happier days
The thought that I could MAYBE escape this haze

This haze of endless worry
This unbearable haze of anxiety and hurting
That maybe the tulips could brighten up life
That maybe the tulips could erase our strife
