Wandering Minds draft 3

I went up stairs for something I lost
I Checked the weather, checked the clock
          I combed out my hair
          Went back down the stairs
But the thing that I lost I forgot.

Ski Pole draft 3

I smacked you in the face for no good reason
It was supposed to be a joke
But now your tooth lies cracked in the snow
An invisible needle in an endless haystack
You feel nothing but pain and confusion
Not sure what happened
But positive something is wrong
The tooth is replaceable, but the dull thud it makes,
the off-white coloring always slightly different than the others
and memories of the gut wrenching crack of metal on bone
will always remind you
of when I smacked you in the face for no good reason.

I went up stairs for something lost
I Checked the weather, checked the clock
          I grabbed my wallet and  combed out my hair
          Went to the bathroom and back down the stairs
But the thing I lost I forgot.

Ski Pole draft 2

I smacked you in the face for no good reason
It was supposed to be a joke
But now your tooth lies cracked in the snow
An invisible needle in an endless haystack
The tooth is replaceable, but the dull thud it makes,
the off-white coloring always slightly different than the others
the matte glow of reflecting light
will always remind you
of when I smacked you in the face for no good reason.

Wandering Minds

I went up stairs for something I lost
Checked the weather, checked the clock
I brushed my teeth and combed my hair
And made my way back down the stairs
But when I checked for what I lost I realized I had forgot

I smacked you in the face for no good reason
It was supposed to be a joke
But now your tooth lies cracked in the snow
An invisible needle in an endless haystack
The tooth is replaceable, but the dull thud it makes
will always remind you
of when I smacked you in the face for no good reason.
