The Small Things

I try to notice things others wouldn’t,

but sometimes it’s as hard as finding a certain star

in the night sky full of millions that reflect like a mirror.

Although, for all the small things I take note of,

I appreciate them with all of my heart.

Even if it’s just saying ‘I love you’ at random,

I enjoy these small moments mortals have,

ones we never seem to cherish, as life seems long,

but in reality it’s short, as time waits for no one.

It seems as if we take these moments of love

for granted because we believe we always have more time,

and for all the small things I notice,

they’ll fill my life with more warmth than it may appear.

    For every word I can’t say,

    I try to write it down,

    but at the end of the day,

    I know I’ll never find the words.

    They jumble together,

    like the sunset’s melting colors.

    For every excuse I make,
