Nothing

If the waves settle down

And my mind comes to rest

And I search in the corners

Now my eyesight not the best

I find pictures of moments

And people we have seen

Pictures of memories

And the beings we have been

If I wipe off the dust

And hold them just right

I can still see the laughter

Giving sunshine it’s light

I can still see the dreams

I can still see the hopes

I can see all the desires

Not bound by any ropes

I allow myself a moment

A moment that I borrow

If I die right here right now

I will live again tomorrow

I have nothing of yours

And you have nothing of mine

Yet we sit happily in the dust

I, in your corners. You, in mine
