Every day
we show ourselves
as we are.
Each day is different.
Still, we remain
as we are.
Who will notice. Who
can see beyond
all we are?
The phases of life, as with
the phases of our Moon
evolve. As do we.
Here we are
all that remains.

Mondays are just young Fridays
Do we truly consider the time it takes to become fully formed? Think of the hours or days (or longer) to stretch, then rest, then resume to become what may.
As strong as the moment, as fluid as the night, each day evolving into the shapes we must take to fit into the current situation.
We are as fragile as we are strong, or beautiful, or worthy, even temporary.
Sparkle while you can.
Be comfortable where you are.
Gravity will take you further.

progress
Unintended lapses in judgement,
latent mistakes, broken promises,
even common forgetfulness will
leave a hangover.
Dwelling on these impositions or
untimely faults will only delay any
progress you hope to make.
Don’t let yesterday use up too much
of today.
You have tomorrow to consider.

just like that
It doesn’t take long
for nights to blur
into months
or years,
or beyond.
Fractured thought,
a broken timeline,
then barely
a fragment of
a second,
or
nothing at all.
Do you remember
what was there
before?
Memories often
disappear
just like that.© 2017 j.g. lewis
