It Only Gets Better

Woke up again, what a win
Sunlight dancing on the wall like it's trying to grin
Coffee's strong, and that's just right - fuel for flight
The sky says there might be rain,
But even clouds get to cry, and that's kind of nice
People wave, and yeah, they mean it
Say "how are you?" and I believe it
I say "great" and really mean it
There's magic in the way we repeat it
It's just another bright day, even if it's grey
Life's a page I get to write my way
If there's a silver lining, I'm already underneath
And hope's not floating - it's living in my teeth
Just another bright day, and it only gets better
Even if it doesn't, I'll still find a way to treasure
Clock in, clock out, still alive
Little things like lunch and laughs keep me high
Even the boring's got a rhythm to its beat
And joy can hide in strangers I meet
Someone smiled on the train today
And I swear it lit the tunnel like a Broadway play
Saw a bird take off like it owned the sky
And thought - maybe I can, if I just try
I'm not naive, just choosing wonder
The world's chaotic - but full of thunder
And lightning too - and yeah, it's loud
But I'd rather feel it than block it out
It's just another bright day, same sun, new view
Life's a storm and I've got dancing shoes
If the glass is half full, I'll add lemonade
Optimism's not fake - it's just homemade
Just another bright day, and I'm lucky to be here
Even on the hard ones, I hold my joy near
And love? That's a wildfire in bloom
And luck's a whisper in a crowded room
And peace? It's not perfection or still
It's learning to breathe and bend at will
It's just another bright day, and I'm still amazed
By how much light hides in mundane haze
The tunnel ends in something warm and clear
And if it's not, then I'll build it right here
Just another bright day, and it only gets better
Even if it doesn't - I'm still the go-getter
So here's to tomorrow...
It might shine, or pour -
Either way, I'm showing up for more.
