Just Another Tuesday


It'll just be a Tuesday.
A Tuesday, normal to most.
Just another day on the calendar. 
It'll be just another day of the week.

But I'm not most people.
I'm the one who still remembers.
I'm the one who still feels.
I'm the one that still misses them.

And I'm the one who still lives,
Regardless of the numbness taking over.
Regardless of that feeling,
That I might be going down.

And it just amazes me how, 
Something so small and insignificant, like a day,
Can stand for something so big in one's life,
When they've lost someone they love.

I'm a sophomore in this little town in Georgia that most of you probably haven't even heard of. Reading and writing has always been my life, but it's only been in the past few years that I've honed in on poetry. Now, I vent through it! I also have a passion for photography and community service. I would like to teach when I get out into the real world. My tidbit of advice for any and everyone would be don't take life too seriously, nobody makes it out alive anyways! Haha, have fun trolling around my profile. :) I have a wattpad, too! It's under the username KaceyJaceyXD, so hit me up there. :D

<p>I feel the pain and the tone of your voice within this poem, I understand and know the same pain that we all face. Yet the pain you feel is one that is a scar that marks your mind and memory but even then those can be mended. Stay strong, never forget, but always forgive, no matter how brutal the loss or crime.&nbsp;</p>

<p>I agree with this poem completely. It&#39;s Thursday for me every week. 26 every month. And July every year.&nbsp;</p>
