Enjoying the Simple Things in Life...

I am colorblind
Coffee black and egg white
Pull me out from inside
I am ready (repeat 3 times)
I am taffy stuck and tongue tied
Stutter shook and uptight
Pull me out from inside
I am ready (repeat 3 times)
I am fine
I am covered in skin
No one gets to come in
Pull me out from inside
I am folded and unfolded and unfolding
I am colorblind
Coffee black and egg white
Pull me out from inside
I am ready (repeat 3 times)
I am fine (repeat 3 times)

Counting Crows "Colorblind"

I am no one significant. I've lived a pretty typical existence. In one sense i've accomplished enough in this lifetime to rival others' lives. But, there is a giant gap to living a fulfilling life in which i'm stuck. I am in Socrates' cave...alone and unable to see the light. For the past ten years i've been taking one step forward and two steps back. I climb to the ledge of a tall hole and someone keeps knocking me back to the bottom. I lack in love. I lack the breadth to understand love and her intracacies. I see other people happy and feel even more desolate. Tomorrow is a new day, but noon is my crack. The joke is in the writing. Am I the butt of it?
