Some Words for the Week

everything feels different 

on the last day of the year 

it’s a small sort of death 

the last sandwich for lunch 

the last gallon of gas 

the last long drive home 

in after work traffic 

the last credit card bill 

the last headache 

the last rejection

a last listen to a favorite song 

the last goodnight kiss 

but if today is dying 

then tomorrow is resurrection

a first kiss good morning 

a first cup of coffee 

a first listen to a favorite song 

maybe this is how 

I should live every day 

like it’s the last I’ll live 

and when tomorrow comes 

it’ll be a sort of miracle
