Sometimes I find myself thinking...

by TLC - Aquarius

Sometimes without even realizing it
I find myself thinking.
Thinking thoughts about questions no one can answer.
Thinking about life and death
My meaning in life
Our simple lives
Just sitting there staring and thinking

I really put a lot of thought into the question of life
Should it be a question?
All I know is I want to wake up tomorrow morning
I want to see the sunrise and set
I want to laugh with friends
To take in vibrant colors of the earth
Breathe the sweet scent of a fresh rose
I want to see and hear children having fun
But most of all I want to live again

No matter how unhappy I get
I find myself stopping to think along the way
Not being able to wake up again
The though brings tears to my eyes
Choking to hold them back
Just thinking about tomorrow without life
Ceasing to exist in the eyes of others
Thinking of the black
Of what comes after

Sometimes without even realizing it
I find myself thinking 
Thinking thoughts about questions only I can answer
Thinking about life and living
What I want my role to be in life
Enjoying my simple life
Just sitting there staring and thinking

Reason for writing:

    Thoughts of not living anymore... but mostly my inspiration is life.
