Taste the days of spring

It has been a while

The smell of the ocean

The laughter of a child

How long since I felt the waves?

A warm current in the air

A breeze through my hair

The sand beneath my feet

The shining sun

Is this where I belong?

It reminds me of a time

When everything felt alright

With all of our dreams

Still ahead of us

I've grown

I'm not a child anymore

A bright future

The open sky ahead of us

Maybe I'll find love

And can I provide

A normal adult life

To leave my troubles

All far behind

To finally feel alive

I forgot for a while

The march of time

Slowly drawing near

Closing in on me

Stuck in the routine

Created by mistake

Dying to believe

In the lies I've told myself
