"I BREATHE EASY"

I look here and there
 I look before and after
 I think of my dead past
 I worry about future not yet
 I smile just too little
 I am pensive more often
 Submerged in all weariness
 Exhausted by over thinking
 Most of the time woebegone
 Crestfallen and dampened spirit
 And I look all around
 It is not just me
 Almost all humanity
 Absent in present
 With great grit and grind
 Rivers of tears taught me
 Just to be in the present
 Just breathe easy and let go...
 Be here and now...
 Life is not then and there
 All is here and now
 Now I breathe easy.
