Something More
All those little things
-tiny, smaller than you see
The smell of chlorine gas
The feeling of moist wind
All those little things
The specific details, such
As the sound of bugs
Or the shade of a bloom
That pale colour of the sky
And the way this air clings to my skin
Yes,
All those little things
That no one ever sees
Add up, as the waves upon the shore
Stretch out to form an ocean
So, too
Do these
Seemingly unknown things
Add up to something more
All those little things
-tiny, smaller than you see
The smell of chlorine gas
The feeling of moist wind
All those little things
The specific details, such
As the sound of bugs
Or the shade of a bloom
That pale colour of the sky
And the way this air clings to my skin
Yes,
All those little things
That no one ever sees
Add up, as the waves upon the shore
Stretch out to form an ocean
So, too
Do these
Seemingly unknown things
Add up to something more
