SOMETIMES

sometimes you sit back and take
one step at a time
sometimes you sit and sigh
but pretend to be fine

sometimes you look at life
and feel it rife
sometimes you strive
for a smile to strike

sometimes you give
never expecting to receive
sometimes you believe
emotions can't be sieved

sometimes you have it all
a life you cannot throw
sometimes you pick at all
so you can find a negative flaw

sometimes you block today
by living in yesterday
sometimes you block your harvest
by eating yesterdays dry bones

sometimes today tries
to eradicate yesterdays lies
sometimes our eyes
fear for our lives

sometimes we cling on yesterday
and make excuses today
sometimes to remain unhappy
or too afraid to deserve happiness

sometimes today gets tired
when it tries it gets fired
sometimes your yesterday hires
a love u once admired

sometimes today understands
its not enough to just try
so it backs off and waits
until your sometimes decides to be an always.
