The Only Moment Is Now

Live in the Present

Dear Me,

-Younger Me

-Future Me

I am talking to you both as Present Me

Presently,

I have apparently

Been paired with the presence of clarity

It says to me:

“That eventually,

we will all reconvene posthumously

But for the time that be,

For the best of Me,

We must all exist, separately

To dwell on either entity

Is to be detached from reality”

And so you see:

Farewell from Me

Sincerely,

A soon to be Former Me

    My head is spinning, but I love it. I am guilty of both living in the past and wishing away my present for want of a better future. Thank you for the reminder to live in the present. Great piece.
