Day by day

There are days
I feel I might not get through.

There are hours
That seem to last
An eternity.

These months,
Have passed so quickly.
So why does it feel
Like I have been alone forever?

In a few short weeks,
I will find myself
In another set of numbers
On the calendar
Which are not kind to me.

They are just numbers,
So why do I hate them so?
Why am I so anxious?
Can't I just skip February?
And maybe March too?
April is not that great,
May maybe worse.
June is not too bad,
July is even better....
But then we are back to August....

Day by day,
Hour by hour,
I have to let these memories fade.
I have to make new memories...

Day by day,
Moment by moment,
I have to take life
As it comes...
As it is.

As I am.
