I Sit Here Pondering
~I Sit Here Pondering~
I sit here pondering
I sit here pondering a lot more now that I am older
about my tomorrows n my yesterdays
about where I am n where I use to be
about the memories I want to make n memories that I keep
I sit here pondering
about the ones I love n ones that love me
I sit here pondering about you n pondering about me
I sit here pondering
about the places I want to see n places I have seen
about the get up n goes to the get up n went
about what I've changed n what needs to be
I sit here pondering while I sip my coffee
I sit here pondering
about me now n who I use to be
about going outside or staying in
about sunrises n sunsets
I sit here pondering quietly
about what I've gained n what I've lost
about me being sad n what makes me happy
about my bad habits n my good
about the path I have taken n the ones I should
I sit here pondering...
