The Energy Didn't Come - BeeWaee
I set the table for the day
Laid my plans in careful rows
Wrote the lines I meant to say
Put on ordinary clothes
The morning knocked, the lights were on
Nothing stood in anyone's way
Everything was right and yet
I just couldn't join the day
I waited for that little spark
That used to meet me at the door
Listened for its hidden step
Didn't hear it anymore
Nothing hurt and no one fought
No bad news, no thunder drum
I was ready, I was willing
But the energy didn't come
No big story to explain
Just a heartbeat in the rain
The energy didn't come
Like a song without the drum
Like a runner at the line
Who just can't make the start this time
Nothing shattered, nothing numb
I just couldn't make it run
And I was there in every way
But the energy didn't come today
Coffee warmed my quiet hands
Windows open to the breeze
All the world was moving on
Like it learned a different ease
Messages were kind and light
Nothing heavy, nothing wrong
Still my body answered back
I'm not ready to be strong
Every task was just a hill
Not a mountain, nothing wild
Yet my steps stayed where they were
Soft and stubborn like a child
I forgave myself out loud
For the race I didn't run
For the boxes left unchecked
When the energy didn't come
No loud ending, no alarm
Just a day without the charm
The energy didn't come
Like a verse without a rhyme
Like a bell that wouldn't ring
Though the rope was pulled in time
I was not undone or dumb
Just a little overrun
By a sky without a sun
And the energy that didn't come
Maybe rest is also work
Hidden where the shadows lurk
Maybe stopping in the middle
Is a different kind of riddle
Maybe strength is staying still
When there's no heroic thrill
Letting breath replace the drum
When the energy doesn't come
Evening sat beside my bed
Smoothed the creases in the day
Didn't judge the things I missed
Didn't take my hope away
I whispered,"Maybe tomorrow"
To the things I didn't do
And I kept a little space
For the chance of something new
The energy didn't come
But the story isn't done
I am tired, I am slow
But I haven't let me go
No parade and no grand sum
Just a heart that won't succumb
I am here and when it's ready
The energy will come
If it doesn't come by dawn
I will simply carry on
Not with fireworks or a drum
Just with me, however I am
On the days it doesn't come
On the days it doesn't come
