we are going
to be okay.

right now things aren’t perfect

our normal has changed

our plans have changed

what we know has changed 

it’s like every sentence is missing something

It’s like every day is the middle of the movie and we are
wondering how all of this is going to end

it’s like every certainty is being tested and every uncertainty is finding the light

i have this feeling in me

like i’ve forgotten something

i’ve checked my pockets and bags and the trunk of the car

but i can’t seem to find what i’m forgetting

but i know

i know i’m forgetting something

but i also know

through it all

we are going to be okay

even if

things don’t look as they should

even if

every sentence is without a period

even if

this feeling of having forgotten something is with me

even if

well, even if

we are going to be okay.


With hope,
