(66) Ah. Weeks.

No work, but so many responsibilities
packing & cleaning
a story to write
& books to read
people to visit
places to see
so little money
so little time
& here I sit
Still thinking about rhymes
while watching NetFlix
& avoiding the subject
because uncertainty
is what I see
Sometimes I think
I'm the one avoiding me
because at the end of the day
who should answer any
of these questions
but me

(63) Find Home

I don't want to be

packing up boxes & heading out

headed north or headed south

I just want to put down boxes

& pull up my flag

& be able to say

This is home

(59) Paths of Progress

My mind keeps reminding me

like a panic button, an alarm,

that the next stage of life

new change

is fast approaching

& I look around this room

& I know I have not a clue

what I'm doing

Is this when I become an adult

or am I just getting points

for progress?

This isn't to say

that this isn't my path

but rather that I'm not sure how to walk it

Do I run?

Or should I amble?

Maybe just change it up as I go

I know I'll over think it, 

but you never know

My hope is just to find

steady hands along the way

& friends that,

even when I stumble,

will always, always stay

So I'll take another deep breath

& start another day

packing up & visiting

those I love along the way

Because though this is all crazy,

it will all work out fine

You'll be fine

It will all be okay
