post it notes

[neon_sea]

it seems like
everyday i reach for
one of the sticky blue post it notes
that rest on my desktop.
i scribble reminders,
to do this or remember that;
hate her and love him...
but i realize
that you cannot lay out your life
like a calender,
with it's perfect square blocks
and neat little plans.
life is inpredictable;
it's sand dunes and mochas,
but also broken stars and thorns.
i think now
i am prepared to deal with
whatever life throws at me.
i'm strong, i am capable...
and i will make it through.

(got my wisdom teeth out...i'm doing okay, was asleep for the whole thing but my jaw hurts...not bad though.)
