Everything Waits to Be Noticed

Everything waits to be noticed A tree falls with no one there The full potential of a love affair Everything waits to be noticed Twenty-eight geese in sudden flight The last star on the edge of the night A single button come undone The middle child, the prodigal son Everything waits to be noticed A trickle underneath a dam The missing line from the telegram Everything waits to be noticed The whispering pains that say you're living The slow burn of not forgiving The quiet room, the unlikely pair The full potential of a love affair Everything waits to be noticed Longing for braver days Cautiously turning a phrase Going unnoticed But everything wants to be noticed The changing light in the upper air The full potential of a love affair Everything waits to be noticed
