This time last year

[_love4one_]

This time last year
Things were different then they are now
The small failed in comparison to the big
Things that I worried about
I don't now

This time last year
I was blindly in love
Now I'm through with it
I'd rather be in love with the thought of being in love
then to be in love with someone
who can't stand the thought of loving me

This time last year
my uncle was blessing us with his presence
Now I visit his grave to be inspired
by his essence

This time last year
Thunderstorms were the tears and roars
of my inner child
Now I embrace them
and let each drop tell a story

This time last year
I was but the outer shell to my inner fears
Now I am the armor that keeps them confined

This time last year I was inspired by poets like
Maya, Edgar, and Emily
Now I am lucky enough to be surrounded by
poets like, Renda, Chunky and Ashley

This time last year
I was unforgiving
Now my empathy is a welcome mat
to the footprints of motives

This time last year
Things were different then they are now
The big failed in comparison to the small
Things that I didn't worry about
I do now
