the past/present conundrum

thinking back

the past always seems so wonderful

and

the present always seems dreadful

but

the present will one day become the past

how then

did these dreadful days become so wonderful ?

frozen

for that one brief moment in time
the feeling of pure unadulterated happiness

the small things

when you were younger everything seemed big and exciting.
now you're older.
everything's the same except you're no longer excited.
you've been jaded.

the joy of innocence

remember when it took almost nothing to put a smile on your face ?
now it seems as though almost nothing puts a smile on your face.

the words set in text

i was never really good with words
and quoting Shakespeare was never my thing
but there's one thing i know for sure

you're beautiful , just the way you are

the bottle on the pipe

even the simplest of objects
has a story to tell

you'll never know
if you never give it a chance

the indian chiefs

the first one said
it wasn't possible

the second one said
i was a fool

the third one said
pretty much the same

i'm gonna prove them all wrong.
