The Little Things

There’s something about…
Turning the light off
That allows words to slip
Faster than I’d like them to

There’s something about
Going out to get ice-cream
That just stops time completely
For a quick breath of life

There’s something about
Hot chicken noodle soup
That makes even the greyest day
A touch brighter

There’s something about
A hug from a friend
That seems to bandage
All those little troubles

There’s something about
Running barefoot in the downfall
That makes running
All the more fun
There’s something about
Sleeping in late
That makes the day
Just a bit more bearable

There’s something about
Friends
That makes life
Worth living…
