Any given day

I am taking a walk

And this one must be for you

As the steps are burning to hold

Some questions that we left

For the answers we never could agree

Any given day

 

Why must we keep brooding

While life’s postures will pass

Celebrating each step

Or the looming self-doubt

The side walk will help bode

Could we leave them to the shadows

Of faith, or just leave them

 

I once asked you

What would I be remembered for

And you smiled

Mysteriously seeking my inattention

To the trivial misgivings

That life is all made up with

Any given day

 

You are still looking at me

And seeing a few long years

In my eyes, seeking softy

The inside of wishes that moved

Away from the beating of craving

So little that we need for each other

Any given day
