Bilingual
Of all the lives to live, why this one?
Filled with could-have-been, no fun
Countless nights of anxious frustrations
Of all the lives to live, why this one?
ย
Of all the souls to meet, why these two?
One, old and dark, furious as a shrugging ocean
The other, shiny, fresh as a winter morning
Of all the souls to meet, why these two?
ย
Another night in bed with you
Another day beside you gone
Slipping softly off to sleep
You say, "Do you ever wonder why this one?"
ย
A dusty simple-minded piece of fiction
Strange and odd, twisted as a contradiction
A glittering jewel of flaws and celebration
Another night in bed with you
Another day beside you gone
Slipping softly off to sleep
You say, "Do you ever wonder why this one?"
You say, "Do you ever wonder why this one?"
You say, "Do you ever wonder why this one?"
Why this one, why this one, why this one?
