the other side

lost in a moment
of melancholy
lost in time
that doesn’t
move


nothing
really wrong
nothing
stirring
nothing
alluring

 

get lost
in
the unwind
time

 

a
little sadness
doesn’t place
a damper
on the day
doesn’t
create
havoc
for
your soul

 

merely
a resting mode
a time
to tally up
and
realize
things
are brighter
on the other side

 

the grass
is greener
the flowers
are sweeter
the birds sing
lullabies
and
the tumble weed
blows
far
…..far
……..far

 

you are
………better off

 

sometimes
you only need
a moment
of melancholy
to see

 

your heart
might
have been heavy
but happiness
always
dwells
in a
resting mode

 

realize
things
are brighter
on this………….. other side
