things will change, you'll see

we often stay

too long

at the fair.

cliche, i know, but true.

we stay

too long in jobs

we should have quit

a long time ago.

we stay in marriages,

in relationships,

in houses

that don't serve us well.

we stay

because, why.

fear, doubt, the anxiety

of being alone?

we are stuck, unable to

move on, so

we stay.

and pretend that all is well,

we can make

this work.

it's fine. it's okay.

things will change, you'll

see,

some day.
