Then and now
A foot in the past, and a foot in the present
Straddling what went before
A bridge of doubt attached to this moment
Now and then
One foot in present as the other moves
Gamely toward the future
Here and there
One foot in this place as one crosses
Every potential to a new state
A new town
One step from where I came from
One step to where I go
Spinning from the stories of what might
Have beens and maybes
Holding what will be loosely
Unformed
Brimming with hope
Beaming with light
And it’s still one small trip to the
Grocery store
And where will I get boxes
And how will I pack up this little life
And leave behind
The comfort of not much
To reach forward to something
Undefined
A thousand decisions
And a giant leap
Across the chasm of uncertainty
I might fall through
I might fly
But I can’t stay here
Like this
When it’s time to go
I’m gone
