Now and Maybe After

There’s no sworn happy ever after,

No promised silence filled with laughter

No guarantee of paradise

Of snake eyes when you roll the dice...

It sucks.

It’s sad

It’s scary, too

But you can’t ruin Now.

You can’t ruin You.

See-

There IS a happy here, right Now

whatever moments’ love allows

Forget next century, decade, year

Remember feelings, Now, right here

Those anxious “if”s? They just don’t matter

You’re happy Now

and Maybe After.
