Sitting here staring at the wall,
another lonely tear falls.
I pretend you're thinking of me like how I am
Sometimes I try to understand the world around me, but i fail.Everything around me puzzles me.The world is a miracle; but life is absurd.When people define concepts very clearly, I am taken aback. Is something wrong with me or them?
As a child things were not so different. I did not understand the world, bit his lack of understanding was compensated by the presence of faith.I accepted explanations at their face value.I f someone told me that the earth is round, I accepted it no matter how strongly our sense perceptions contradicted it .When fairy tales were narrated with lots of miracles thrown in, I swallowed them with eyes wide open.
The simple faith of childhood, alas, is no longer available to me.Now different and bigger problems puzzle me.And I can find no answers.
Cos you're the one that led me here, so take me.
