Between Then & Now
I thought I was the strongest of all,
Until I quietly changed my mind.
Somewhere between then & now,
I learned how to slow down.
Not because the road changed,
But because I did.
The old frames still exist,
the ones only I remember
In the order they happened.
Funny how something can feel so true
And still belong to a place
You can never return to.
So I left the door where it was,
The memories where they were,
And myself somewhere beyond them.
