Poetry

Sometimes

It would be so easy to stop and breathe and honestly look at myself.

But what if what I see isn’t what I want to see after all my hard work?

What if the person I see in the mirror is the same, and even though change is hard, not everything will stick?

And will I be okay with knowing the past can come and bite me even when I think I’m over the pain it once caused me?

Maybe some things in my life don’t have an answer yet.

But I will see it through, for life is all about ups and downs.

Whether I like them or not.
