I used to want to know
everything
What was happening or
about to go down
Who was saying what
and what that means for me
I was so anxious
about the future
that I didn’t know
what to do
I was confused
about what
could be,
should be,
or might be,
that I barely knew
you know who
Because I was worried about
what I didn’t know,
I stopped paying attention
to what was what
And this is no way to live
Now, I’m in love with the
moment
Everything is new
What’s happening
right now is
completely unexpected
It’s like hunting
Easter eggs
If and when you find one
that’s the prize
not what’s inside
