X

You said you could bathe yourself, so mother let you to

you wore slippers, each on the wrong foot

you wasted the lux on your belly

for you if the belly was clean,

then every other part would be

It made perfect sense then,

just like playing under the rain did

just like cooking with gino cans did

making fans off leaves, gadgets from papers

For you the world was an empty room then

but I guess that was the simplicity of life

and we barely play now do we?

If nostalgia were a room,

most of us would live in it

life is a math problem

and as we progress, the equation gets harder

For the day you find X , is the day you leave earth,

so would you keep solving, or let the others try?
