Results of a Restless Mind

There are plenty of fish in the universe

One day you will wake up
And realise
The first thing you thought about
Was not them

One day you'll walk past the playground
The dairy
The old movie theatre and
Your park bench
And you'll realise that's all they are

One day you'll walk down the street
And see a sea of strangers
And not
Them

One day you'll feel butterflies in your stomach
When someone else catches your eyes
And smiles

One day you'll long to hear someone else say your name

Feel someone else lips

Someone else's skin

One day you'll move on.

So hold on kiddo

They may seem like your entire galaxy today

But there's an entire universe out there to explore.
