Happiness Now

erin

Happiness now
brings me great joy
yesterday, today, and tomorrow
but a feeling builds
as days turn to months to years
that tomorrow’s tomorrow
will be here sometime
not today
not even soon
but just after?
tomorrow’s tomorrow will arrive eventually.
and when it does
i fear that i will see all the moments
all the nows i chose uninterrupted happpiness
judge them
and find myself wanting
for what could have been ◼︎
