Stop being afraid of what could go wrong and start being excited about what could go right


He doesn't understand that life is art. 

He doesn't feel the lyrics to the songs he sings 

He doesn't notice the trees dancing with the breeze 

He doesn't understand how I see.

 

I look at life from a different perspective 

I look around and see beauty 

He looks around and sees nothing.

Nothing invokes that emotion I feel while looking at the sunrise,

Seeing a rainbow after a storm hits, 

Hearing the birds chirping the very next morning, 

Or hearing the lyrics speak to you from that song on the radio 

He doesn't understand why I cry at the sight of the worlds beauty.

 

He's taken off his rose colored lenses

And now everything is nothing to him

And I can't help but wonder

If I'm nothing too.

I wrote this about an old "lover" who didn't quite understand me.
