2020
(an exercise in acceptance)


So you didn't have forever,
at least it wasn't never,
at least there was something instead of nothing,
at least there was music instead of silence.

Remember the beginning,
how it began like a bang,
suddenly there was something
bursting forth with such ferocity
that you'll forever feel it
aching. 

Remember what was next was music,
filled with breaks
and rests,
peaks and valleys,
all adding all up to a stirring song,
that will forever refill your heart to remember.

So you didn't have your forever,
at least it wasn't never,
at least there was something instead of nothing,
at least there was music instead of silence.
