U - The Unremarkable

THE UNREMARKABLE

If I were to look
Back into my past
What would I see?
A multitude of hopeful
Cheerful interludes
Dusted with
The Unremarkable

Would I change it?
The past
I see?
The Unremarkable?
No!
Not now!
Not ever!

The mistakes I’ve made
Teach me

My life
The loves lost

Along the way
Strengthen
Establish me

Even more than that
The loves gone
The lives lost
The Unremarkable
Will not ever
Nor cannot ever

Return

If I were to look
Back into my past
What would I see?
Myriad buoyant
Joyful intervals
Many more familiar
Unexceptional phases

Would I change it?
The past I know?

The Unremarkable?
No!
Not now!
Not ever!

For my past is Me!
