sometimes i take a Shower
with the lights off.
but before i even finish showering, i turn the lights back On,
because i remember how afraid of the dark i am.
sometimes i go to the Airport
and just sit in there for a few hours.
because i like watching people Reunite.
sometimes i cut my Fingernails way too short.
like, down to the quicks.
because it’s an odd feeling, the way my fingertips Hurt
every time i touch something.
sometimes i go out in public without my Shoes,
because i like feeling the Real ground,
not just the inside of my shoes.
sometimes i re-arrange my Bedroom,
but then i change it right back
because everyone knows that there isn’t a single person
in the world that isn’t afraid of Change.
sometimes i try reading books Upside-down
because i think thats what it would be like if i couldn’t
Read
at all.
sometimes i just sit and watch the Grass grow,
because we’re lucky that it even grows in the First
place.
sometimes i do things.
sometimes i don’t.
I am just a normal person,
in a weird world,
trying to do what’s right,
and make people smile.

Such a lovely read. I’m still smiling now. The idiosyncrasies here are so familiar and warm… I really like your use of capitalising some words, fracturing some sentences. It seems to work with the disjointed whismy of this piece.
Oh my goodness! That’s really so flattering. Thank you. :]

You read and you read, then you read and began to see what an important picture of life is in a writing. I think that you have expressed this thoght well. Thank you so much.Frank JII

this really made me smile, i like how you wrote about things that some people migh overlook, but they shouldnt. because maybe they might enjoy life more, or maybe thats whats stopping them…

it’s nice to read something and then you realized you’ve been smiling the entire time…very well done!
Sometimes you read something that is just something else!!! The simplicity was really lovely….I was nodding along as I was reading. I love places where people are leaving and meeting….so many somethings to talk about. Excellent piece! Cheers 4 Now :))))
Thank you!
I totally agree.. so many emotions in comming and leaving, and im a person that loves emotion.

so simple, but so memorable.
life is too short for things not to be memorable.
