under the shade of trees
wrapped in the soft grasses
you will get down and be lifted
each moments everyday
start all over again and again
did you forget who you are?
trying so hard to stay alive
your memory loses meaning
the past a tender videotape
watch the leaves fall on you
the sunlight shimmering over
your legs and your fingers
stay alive, stay alive for a while
no need to do anything
you will fail and succeed either way
sing with the wind
weep with tearful clouds
dance with the trees
there's no other way
to live other than this
tortured souls in black and white
born without a purpose
how were you supposed
to live without a laughter?
knee deep in your faith
the essence of your being
forgives you for your sins
leave the broken nest
swim in the tides
the changing, the movable
each day is a swing set
no time is ever wasted
when everything is as sacred
stay alive for the moment
beautiful things in your eyes
birds greet you everyday
listen to them in the morning
welcome storms with open arms
hug the thunder that strikes you
pet the cat across the street
caress the back of your hands
stay alive for the moment
life will greet you back
