i like the word sometimes.

not because it means not all the time

but because it means that some things don't last forever

and perhaps they're not meant to.


does that mean we are all just sometimes?

after all, we won't last forever,

and i don't think we're meant to either.


and so it dawns on me 

that maybe i don't really mind.

because most times i just feel like

a sometime.


The author's comments:

this poem was born out of looking for inspiration after a long period of not writing and i realized that lately i'd been latched on to the idea of sometimes and i thought about why that was. this poem was what resulted and i think it holds a lot of poignancy reflecting what i feel at times and hopefully, somebody else does too. so, here's sometimes!
