From a Distance



From a distance of today 
I see my past, 

a long dark tunnel 

with twists and turns,

bright spots and dark corners. 


To drift along that corridor without holding today’s confidence can be dangerous, too easy to slip 

into dark corners that beckon. 


are the bright spots figments of my imagination? 

I remember that naive girl, 

who still lives inside me….. 

In the sunlight of today, I count my blessings, and am grateful.


“Maybe, I thought, it’s not distance 

that’s the problem, but how you handle it.”

~ Rachel Cohn, Dash & Lily’s Book of Dares
