The Day Before
Jul 22, 2021
The day before
Was just a day
We didn’t savor it as we should have
We didn’t know
It was just a day
The day before
We did normal things
Knowing, for sure, that we would do normal things the next day, and the next, and the next
Knowing that so thoroughly that we did not think it, we just knew it
It was just a day
The day before
We were young
And innocent
We didn’t know what the world could do
In an instant
To make us different
From how we were the day before
The day after
How we longed for
The day before
