Leaning towards lazy

~ ~M

lazy

Do you ever just feel
Like you need a day to be lazy
The world keeps on spinning
Driving you crazy

And you just need a moment
To forget your life
Time to free yourself
From the pain, grief, and strife

Is it all too much
To ask for such a day
To let your mind wander
And be free to play

Can you imagine if you had that?
What would you even do?
A whole day to yourself
Could change your whole view

I wonder if any of us
Will ever find out
I’d like so much to hope for it
Rather than doubt

Guess it’s a decision
That we all must make
Should be an easy one
For the sanity of our own sake

I think determination is the key
We must fight for our own time
And regardless of what I think
It shouldn’t be a crime

So I’m voting for a day
To relax, sleep, and play
And I’m wondering…
Will you all join me today?

  4. We need those days so badly. I try to take one every once in a while, but I admit that I worry that I am wasting time doing nothing. Then I remember that I am doing something: saving my sanity! Thanks for following us. It means a lot to us both. Regina

  11. Its flowing, it has a nice effect to it, like mild electricity at the tip of the tongue, a sort of buzz-tingling sensation as the words roll out. Thank you for entertaining.
