Present Tense
Ate my favorite cookie
walking to the bathroom,
didn't enjoy it.
Thinking about my upcoming
vacation was better
than living it.
Caught myself rushing
to meditation class,
thought about it.
Clicked my alarm to pause
wanted more time,
I missed it.
Argued with my friend
never happens again,
I did it.
Savoring a chocolate delight
looking for more,
I'd ate it.
Stay present.
Lighten up.
