86 - Worthwhile


I wonder if
we long for something
from the past
because we weren’t
truly present
while it was happening.

I worry about how
we can be present
now if we are
always wishing
for another time
that isn’t this one.

I admire those rare
moments that I was
really there.
I look back and smile.
I don’t feel a pang of loss or desire.

I just feel my time for once
had been worthwhile.
