Heh.. just something that popped into my head last night. Enjoy. ;)
CATCH IT NOW
Catch it now
It’s falling faster
Red, blue, green, yellow
Beautiful colours for beautiful stars
A small boy stands in the eye of his window
Looks to the skies and asks
Who will he be when he grows up?
But no one knows
And who is this God?
A little girl in a playground
Stops and stares at a stranger
What will he do when he gets caught?
He’ll lie
And say he didn’t know
An old man looks at old photographs
Grainy texture, black and white
Both withered and broken
He didn’t want to end this way
He didn’t know he’d die
A shattered woman weeps alone
Bruises and blood line her skin
But there’s no one to hear her cries
There is no God to answer her prayers
So what should one say to the little lost boy?
And how can the girl child be saved?
How can the old man live forever?
And how can the woman stop the pain?
Ponder this when you go to bed
And know the answer when everyone’s asleep
In the end, they’ll all have one thing in common
Everyone learns they are alone
Even me
Even you.
