Everything Right Now: Part 2


One day I won't rememeber the teeth clicking

The mouth smacking

The talking with a full mouth

Or at least I'll no longer care

The mirror was replaced promptly

The bank account will be replenished

Everything right now is still only everything right now

One day you will all be gone

Maybe I'll leave before some

Maybe I'll outlive my loving home

I overthink

I can do what I want

I can stand firm

A disagreement does not always mean one party or the other is wrong

Simply different beliefs and perspectives

I have resources

I have means

I have will

Love is not lost

It will be found again

With the same soul or with another

The cat will return

Hopefully

But still

Everything is right now

I made a resolution

To keep it I do intend

To live in the present

And let this way of living mend

Because after all

Nothing can be done

Everything is right now
