and then it's back
just like the wind will always blow
the opposite direction
for a short time
or like the tides of the sea
ebbing flowing
why do i pursue something
so painful
that haunts me
when right in front of me
stands
me
beauty
everything good i ever did
I already have it today
i'm scared of what i wish for
might take away
what i have
because I have it today
and I feel happy
please say it's not fleeting
today, I'm happy
