Sitting in the quiet
Nothing but crickets
Thinking about the past
And wondering if I miss it
A moment of peace
Letting my mind go blank
Whenever it’s sink or swim
It never failed I sank
Reflecting on the moment
I waited so long
Anxiety taking over
Wondering was that wrong
The peace has passed
This is retrograde
Time to move forward
From when I was mislaid
