That’s Where She Was

Daisy Ren, 2T5 WB

In the middle of a green, grassy field 

Where you have farmland for acres 

That’s where she was

One of these fields from the movies 

Where the characters prance in slow motion

That’s where she was 

Silently looking up at the clouds 

At the sky so blue she felt like her eyes were deceiving her

With a breeze so light you would miss it if you weren’t paying attention 

In the background, she could hear the birds singing their morning songs

while not a single trace of human civilization showed for miles

And she sat there thinking 

Of all the beautiful things in her life 

Of all the beautiful people in her life

Of all the beautiful things happening in her life

And she couldn’t believe that she had ever been sad 

That she had ever been empty 

She felt so lucky for the friends who laugh with her until sunrise 

For the family who sits with her, so she never has to sit alone 

For the colleagues who inspire her to be better 

Because on that September day, she had finally collected all her pieces again 

For the first time in forever 

There she was
