There is nothing
Like passing the time away
Reading books
Enjoying the hooks
Writing a novel
Can’t be that trivial
Singing a song
Under the rain
Can’t be wrong
Using the brain
Video game are a challenge
If you take the plunge
Experiencing a story
Told through allegory
There is nothing
Like passing the time away
Poetry and rhyming
Are much like breathing
You just start doing it
And never ever quit
Fame and fortune
May never arrive
But I live my life fun
This is for what I strive
Art flows from my fingers
Onto many, many papers
Words forming thoughts
Keeping my wit very taut
There is nothing
Like passing the time away
Jobless
But not homeless
I work for a bright future
Based on our love for each other
Nothing will keep us apart
The beauty of love brought us together
Every day we create amazing art
All the while, ignoring the weather
The climate of the entire world
Is trying to make our life unfurl
We will make it through this
For, together, we have nothing but time to pass
Fact is
There is nothing
Like passing the time away.
