Optimist Hey there, are you done? Have you soaked enough of your skin in the sun? Somewhere there are waves of shade To trap you in the dark inside of day Grey. Their grey currents flow But where they’ll take you You don’t know... Light conducts a hopeful dream Until life comes in and tears apart the seams Like a veil of translucent clay You can no longer discern the night from day.. Your first kiss when you were eighteen Flew you higher than any plane And the plain you knew began to grow lame Swear that one moment always changes everything Now don’t forget that of where your from While your sheets grow grass under the sun Remember there’s still so much you’ve left undone... Just a thought to leave with for when you’ve gone (Grey. All fortunes glow But where they’ll take you You’ll never know... )
