Hush or Easy Living or Anything But Untitled

Once I saw it bloom
Sprout a personality
It shifted and swayed
Gave into the wind's pushy hands
I wanted to wear a suit to fit in
Follow the sidewalk's current
I combed my hair and
Looked to practice my handshake
I bend and tighten
Place impressive fingerprints
On unimpressive memories
Eyes can be so cruel
Men and women pushing 50
Looking at me like I'm stoned
Forgive, forget, smile, wave, fun
I'm scared to stay
There goes a life I never knew
And probably never wanted.
