Today
Today.....
on the first day
of spring,
I remind myself
to remember hope
as if life is a wave
that I can catch
We are all born blue,
without a pattern
the sun behind the horizon
tells us not to worry
though we do
I tell myself......
It is the first day of spring
and there is no
"Then"...
just a now.
No sharp edges,
no corners- just
a spoon dipped
in chocolate
Hope....
a door
I kicked down
and kept running
Until I almost
found myself
Love ......Yes
I shall love as if;
it is my favorite
small black dress
I slip past my hips/ slick
As if he wont notice
It comes off easily
from practice
Spring-
how it brings
the eternal optimist
maybe
he'll believe that
I could love him
as much as
I love myself
that I am a wave-
that he could catch
I catch my breath
And tell myself
Remember...
Spring....
"What happened to you
that makes you
this way"
Remember there is no "Then"
Just a now...
Remember spring
to remind you...
You forgot yourself
