Untitled June 9, 2021

I honestly just wish to sink
in this depression of mine

that with the passing of the years
have been filled with tears

but as much I try
the more I realized

that this depression of mine
it’s just a pond

Not long ago, this depression
was deep, so deep where I swam
but with buckets of hope, I filled it up

and now, somehow,
whenever I look over that pond

I feel like a child
who wishes to stomp, splish-splash
and giggle
and laugh

    With age cones perspective. I find myself thinking over days gone by, at the upsets and angsts. Looking back now with wisdom I see now how unnecessary those tears were, even how silly, how each drop washed away like a river of yesterdays.

      Yeah, though there are some tears that won’t evaporate no matter how hot the days are. But, might as well try to enjoy them if possible or just reflect on them?
