I always loved the Peanuts
Watching the TV screen I always thought of it as a goofy childhood show to watch on a cold autumn day
Though he put the show together I never payed much attention to Charlie Brown
The classic loser who couldn't catch the baseball, because he tripped over his own feet
As I grew older his name resonated more with my own
The constant disappointment in people
The constant hope for a different result
The feeling of embarrassment with limited reassurance you're going the right way
So maybe he isn't a loser
Maybe he was made to touch others who feel odd in a world that doesn't seem so
Maybe we aren't hopeless
