Looking Back
I was reading back
To something I wrote
A year ago
To the day
It was about a rendezvous
A meeting where nothing happened
But I wondered to myself
If anything would
And that wonder grew
And became a dream
A dream that was all too real
That stoked a passion at my core
But as I look back now
The answer was there from the start
The nothing that happened
Was exactly that-nothing
But the dream was all too real
And what I’ve taken away
From a year of wonder
Are answers to questions I didn’t know to ask
And I’m better for that learning
Because the whole experience
Showed me a much better me
And for that I owe my friend a lot
And someday
Someone
Will benefit from that rendezvous-
And the things that I found deep at my core
