Four short words
a simple painted scrawl
"How long is now?"
staring from the wall.
Now is neverending
a golden time to live
the past can't be redone
don't waste your time, forgive
So much drama
so much pain
So many gazes gone dull
from the happiness they feign
I don't care about the past
while we're here together
I'm not worried 'bout the future
because now is forever.
I know you have to leave
tomorrow you'll be gone
but I'm living in the now
so I'll hold you 'till the dawn
I'm focused on the present
so I'll cry, so I'll smile.
I'll spend my time with you
since I have you for a while.
It made me think
about what's important.
One day at a time,
life's much less discordant.
Four short words
a simple painted scrawl,
"How long is now?"
staring from the wall.
