don't understand

maybe i never will

By tylerPublished 6 years ago 1 min read

Maybe I just don’t understand

My cards were dealt,

can’t read the hand

Connecting stars that don’t align

I want them to work, say give it time

The truth is I have no answers

Life’s a movie but who’s shooting the picture

Stand back look at the bigger picture

Can’t relax not how I pictured

I wonder if in another life

Id be the same would I make things right

Would I do all the things I can describe

Would I be laid back instead of intense

Would I fix all the problems, burn the incense

Maybe I just don’t understand

My cards were dealt,

can’t read the hand

Connecting stars that don’t align

I want them to work, say give it time
