Some Days It Seems So Easy
A Poem
Some days it seems so easy to just be happy Just a look from you warms me up and gives me what I’ve missed so much while in hibernation from affection and the possibility of love
Some days it seems so easy to blindly trust someone because there’s no reason not to and I don’t want to spend my time trying to figure out why I shouldn’t It’s how you share with me that makes it easier for me to share with you but in the end, it is just about honesty and acceptance
Some days it seems so easy to do life with the thought of you circling my mind and filling me with future thoughts that I gave up on Until I saw your face that day across the museum floor and my perspective shifted
Some days it seems so easy to just be, to go to eat to come home, to make popcorn to talk for hours and hours about what we are and what we will be and really, it’s not idle hope It’s not the product of need We were both fine on our own But neither of us want to settle for fine, at least not after we’ve seen this blossoming flower that will only grow stronger with water from our happy tears, and time
Some days it seems so easy but other days will be hard Nothing comes without a slight edge but maybe even the hard will be easy when we have the luxury to look into each other’s eyes to see what seems so easy
