the truth is

the days will pass by

whether you choose

to embrace the day

for all that it was

and all that it was not.

the truth is

yesterday is gone

tomorrow is out of grasp

but this moment

where your feet are

is here.

this moment is here.

I hope you breathe it in

all of it

all that it is

all that it is not.

the days will pass

either way

but perhaps

who you will become

in that choice

is worth the embrace.

– J.E.F.
