Never

While I am able to elaborate and enumerate

My words seem stolen from pages forgotten

Lost in time with the rest of humanities great works that well never got read

Left in a lost and never-found box constructed by people who never did quite build it

You see it seems that the never-looked-fors keep getting out and reproducing

The lost time we always wish back or the forgotten stories that never really were that interesting

And the never-shoulda’s keep causing people headaches

Cause we over looked the never-coulda’s

And hey look I have found those questions that never-were-answered

The questions like how many heartbeats can that broken heart pump out?

Or how about Who shoots the shooting stars?

They never met up with the answers they so desired because those questions were never asked

I just found my folder in a section called never-wanted’s

It is full of other people to but I just didn’t really care

Maybe the reason I got thrown into the lost and never found

Was cause well I never really gave a fuck

It is a shame you don’t listen carefully enough to tell when the mood changed

Cause well it just did

And now we just lost time cause you got confused with all these changes

I ended up finding you hanging out with the never-will-be’s

And lets be honest dreamers don’t do anything for anyone except burn the soul

They got caught staring at the bubbles that hold dreams

Showing the people we hope to be in mirrors set on bent frames

It is easy to get stuck as a dreamer

And we all know dreamers stay dreamers

well until they aren’t ones

And they join the rest of us attempting to force their dreams to burst into existence

And really the there should be a warning on those damn things

Cause that grass that looked so green is actually painted

And the dream I really wanted

It hangs over there sparkling in between now and forever

But wait a second were is the train that brought us here

What was it called train 5 or 9

No it was this train called thought and it left the station again

But that’s ok cause I want to stay here and learn from the never-shoulda’s

And find all the never looked for’s

So I can have a little more time to ask more questions that never were answered

Like What questions does god ask when he knows all the answers?

Or If the light coming from the sun is sunshine is it still called son shine when it radiates off me

And with the time left I will learn how to dream big with all the never-will-be’s

They after all know how to do things never-done-before

And when I step back to reality I will listen to that one whispered statement

That dares us all

The echo that says never be forgotten
