Array ( [sid] => 174750 [catid] => 1 [aid] => mick [title] => As I Stood There [time] => 2013-01-07 14:21:45 [hometext] => [bodytext] => As I stood there
looking all around
So many people having fun
I just stood there, not making a sound

My friends by my side
I observe everyone’s very move
I just stood there
I couldn’t get into a party groove

It was like a step back in time
as I looked at all the faces
Reminded me of people from my past
from traveling to so many places

Not knowing any of these people
many of them looked like people I have met before
It made my thoughts wander
asking myself if I was sure

Totally amazing
just seeing things the way I did
I was reminded of people I once knew
when I was just a kid

No urge to drink alcohol
just to join the crowd
I enjoyed the moments watching
even though they were all so loud

Belonging to those moments
out of place I did feel
Grasping the past, present, and future
as I have a fate to seal

All of my friends
wallowing in joy and laughter
Those were moments to last
forever here after
