Foolish And Stupid
They thought of us
Ever since that night we spent a few precious hours
Where we were ourselves for the entire time we were together
Where we didn’t have to pretend, nor act to please each other
Or trying to make each other feel comfortable
Where we felt like we had known each other for ages
And that night we were just like old acquaintances who just had a chance to reunite
Ever since
I was never the same
My world was turned upside down
Jack Johnson sang, “Is this how it’s supposed to be?”
Well I didn’t know any other way it should be
All I knew was that I felt alive
More alive than I had ever been in a very long time
Like I was able to breathe again
Like I was able to be myself again
Like I was living for something bigger than life itself
Living each day as if it was my last
Breathing each breath as if the oxygen was not free of charge
Walking each steps as if walking on air
I knew of miracles
And for those who didn’t believe in them
I say, “You should, because it happened to me.”
One miracle that changed my life
One miracle that started off the others
And it all happened because we dared
To be thought foolish and stupid
To be thought different and strange
To be thought helplessly romantic and shameless
And I no longer cared
What others thought of me
What others thought of us
None of it really matters
All I know is that you’re made for me and I for you
And that’s enough for me to know
That I finally find my place in this world
That I finally belong
That I finally find my path
And how beautiful it is from here
The bigger picture
The final destination
Because you’re here. With me. Forever.
