A day

Full of joy

All that good stuff

As good as it could have been.

After a trip was canceled

A day

I was ready for

I needed it

I hadn’t lost all hope.

And it was everything I wanted

Everything I wanted.

Except one missing piece

The smallest things matter

That’s what I’ve learned

This tiny piece

Flips the whole world

When it’s gone

Like the eye

Seeing everything backwards

The brain has to flip it

And this one piece

I miss it

No denying the truth

But I’ll wait

And soon

I’ll find

That piece

And be

In peace.
