Well, hello!
Last time you saw me was four whole years ago.

My, does the time fly?
So many beautiful and exciting things have happened.

Unbelievably, the sadness in my prose has changed...

Yes I know... hard to believe! —

I took the time to take a deep breath
My worries
My fears
They have both went from old
To new.
Why you may ask?
Well, four years does change a person.
What do you mean?
Yes, just what I said.
Well, okay... I will delve deeper and explain.
No longer, do I have to worry about
Pushing myself to get up for school.
I no longer worry about walking across that stage or my adulthood future.
Now I just worry about future bills.
I know, how exciting?
But, I am in a happier place.
Turn the page and you'll see what I mean...

Sorry that this one isn't my typical palindrome poem, but I felt the need to use this as a good page break in between the 4 years I was not writing.
