Prose

Just a Realization

written by: rstephens93

when the days

seem to pass so scarcely

so slowly

and as I wait for them to pass

I'm confronted with everything

I know so well

every day every memory

all that I ever cherished

that I tried to savor as long as I could

everything I hated

all the nightmares that came to life

hiding under my covers

patiently waiting for them to leave

everything and anything

I knew and know

has flashed before my eyes

as quick as they came and passed

and slowly

I've come to realize

how good life has been to me
