The sun is a bit dim today,
and the streets are quiet in their own way.
I can hear the loudest sound
from my heart inside, all around.
Held up in the hustles of life each day,
I never found the time to pause or stay,
never asked myself, even once in stride,
how am I doing deep inside?
Every day passing so quickly makes me realize,
as moments fade before my eyes,
am I truly living this life,
or just moving along with passing time?
Suddenly, the chirp of a bird brings me back,
pulling my thoughts from their silent track,
and there I am, without a fight,
finding myself back to the same life.
