About

its not about the small stuff
its not about your car breaking down
its not about your chapped lips
your stubbed toe
or your mom seldomly coming around

its not about what you're wearing
and not about what he's got on
its never about your mistakes
your mess-ups
or your 'what-i-did-wrong's'

its not about the speed limit that you never follow
and its not about the tag that always peeks out
its not about your apathy for today, your future, or the situations around you

its not about those comparisons you fease up because its 
not important nor never will be
its not about them, or she, the collecive or the singular
and its never about all of it

it's about your DNA persuading your lungs to be the real you
it's about your feet warning your pulse when there's a new turn
it's about the moments of brief certainty when your synapses and heart shake hands once again
its about never knowing how many grains of sand or galaxies of stars there are to count
because it's not about that
we're a brief moment in time
and that's what we're about.
