Your life is a placeholder
Filling
The gaps between
Voyages.
You were there,
Now you are here,
Soon you will be somewhere new.
With every pebble ripples will come
And this, they tell you, this is the aftermath.
You may feel sad,
But that is better
Than never having had what was good
And is now over.
So be thankful for your sadness
Only distinguishable because
Once there was happiness.
And remember
Feeling something
Is better than nothing.
What is worse than nothing?
Nothing.
Nothing.
And time will continue to travel,
Whether you are onboard
Or not.
With every second
You will be closer to
The new.
