What if,
What if you thought less
of yourself?
No inner monologue
pontificating
about why and why not?
No star studded shame
rehashing yesterday
and five minutes
from now.
Years you could’ve
spent doing anything else.
Don’t think about your
quiet derailment.
Take a pit stop
in the present.
Get off and enjoy
the sights and
try to forgive
with each step.
Time doesn’t stop,
but you can try to enjoy
what time you have.
