When The Day Is Not Really Over
The Clock On The Wall Lies
Here it is another day because the time says 3:14
That's A.M.
But the clocks don't tell you that
They just think you should know
Well I am still up and for me I haven't gone to bed yet
So technically I am still on the same day
When I go to bed and then get up a new day starts all over again
I did so many things today and I wanted to do so many more
I met a new friend and we clicked
We had fun shared some laughs
The time flew by
The hours passed and we were just talking
When you meet someone new everything is different
Your views on the world change just a bit
In the past your old friends have their ways
You know how they will act in every situation and every answer they will give
When you find someone new or if they found you
There is a common bond
If it is a friend from work you can talk about your job for hours and all the things you have done
They can tell you other jobs they have had right from day one
If it is someone in school in the same class
You once again have common knowledge and maybe you have questions about what you are learning together
If it is a friend of a friend then it could be any number of interests
From family life to sharing wife stories or just the way you grew up
Maybe it is all about your kids or grandchildren
You and I both know they are always first things on our minds all the time
If you are younger maybe it is a familiar sports or a video game you have both played
Maybe it is a new business partner that seems like the right fit
You can exchange ideas and not feel threatened
As you listen you learn something new
A different way of doing things that maybe saves time and money
Suddenly you have new goals and your dreams become more clear
You see life through their eyes and are not quick to judge
They may not agree on every thing but that is have the fun
A balance that tips back and forth
You respect each others life and they are also busy like you with endless obligations and things to do
Some how ,some way you find it in both your best interests to talk again
This time building a friendship that will be rock solid
A foundation that is strong and can last forever if you both take the time to do it right
Nothing is instant so you can't just add water and hope for the best
You have to practice and share your values and utmost desires to succeed
If that partner is right for you
You both will know it
When words come out faster than you can type them
That is a sign
Who cares that you horiscope says otherwise
You can set out to show the world it was not true
Both of you work together independently and together
Feeding off each others answers as if they were your own
You share a few inside jokes and sometimes you see your weaknesses you have never seen before
As time goes on it is like flowers in a field that grow
There are all different types sometimes daisy's and lillies and wild flowers too
When you look at them they are so beautiful and different
Each one complementing the other
As if they were made to be there
So if your smart you will take a few and leave a few
Put some in a vase and keep them watered for awhile until they wilt
They are like many people you see day to day
Then their are others that are so special you don't touch
You visit often and watch them grow big and strong
They will bloom all summer long and make life happier than before
So if your like me I keep my day going burning the midnight oil
Then when I am exhausted I go to bed
Then I dream of everything new because we all have the gift of a fresh start
