A dread for the present
Looking only into the morrow
I wish only
To meet you again.
We’ve been through this thicket,
This maze,
Why go through the same trial
When the outcome
Is all but clear?
A wish
For the fast-forward button
Is all but impossible.
I shift perspective
And everything
Feels much easier,
This
Is just another challenge
Another wall,
Waiting to befriend
Our wrecking ball.
If we’ve done it once
We can surely
Do it again.
-Dante
