Quiet Change

I was just sitting outside today,
a cool breeze blew by my face
birds singing and chirping,
bringing a sense of tranquility to my place.

I was just sitting outside today,
the warm sun upon my body
was thinking about old friends,
our lost comradery.

I was just sitting outside today,
watching the innocence pass by me
hoping it would last forever in all that I see

I was just sitting outside today,
looking at the stars lighting the sky,
the sweet night air blowing by,
a somber moment, a little cry,
praying time will give me another try

I was just sitting outside today, just thinking.
