Yotam Perel
Working Quietly (Birthday 28)
Well I'm 28
I missed you
Sorry I'm late
Work had me deep in debate
Deciding whether we should celebrate
My absence has been pestering me
Festering inside with no engagements in sight
An aptness to romanticize

So I've been working quietly
Taking baby-sized steps
And bulking up my defense claims
I'm still trying

Not shooting for stars
Can barely aim at the clouds
Crowds growing flurried and douse me
With the sweetest eulogies
Oh jeez, take this with ease
Life is but a breeze
And I hope to appease, I'm on my knees!

I've been working quietly
Quench your thirst, you'll be nursed
It's anatomy
It's you and me
There's ought to be
