on this day.

reminisce, find nostalgia in the sun.

lxxxix. REMINISCE, FIND NOSTALGIA IN THE SUN.

you will have good days

and bad days
but more commonly
even if you don't realize
you will have the inbetween days
where you don't do much
but you don't cry over something someone does
and you don't cheer over the little things in life
like the barista at starbucks finally spelling your name right
but you will find yourself
behind a computer screen
or phone
or television

and you will try to entertain the brain that can't quite function
good days bring you smiles and exuberance
bad days bring pain and drenched sadness that
protuberances through your veins
but the inbetween
the okay
the barely making it but somehow i'm doing it days
they bring calm, peace

out of all these days that come and leave
remember to breathe
when these days have arrived

you'll feel it in the orange that bleeds at sunrise
and find the start button as the stars scatter at sunset
ready for you to press
when the wanting to be better and knowing it'll come
coalesce.
