We walk in circles
finding it
curious
To return to something
after years
and best intentions
slip by
to see how its changed
how you have changed
and yet remain
the same
Centuries pass
The first
was filled with cold rain
steep climbs
towards distant goals
pride was born here
the second
was filled with friendship
strained and stretched
beyond one's comfort
Finding footing
on the rocky shore
a start but not a finish
the third
was filled with hope
turned familiar fantasy
rolled back
the shock snap
Releasing regrets
the fourth
was filled with heartache
loneliness and longing
Seeking distraction
in the newfound
heat
the next
will be
different
that's what we tell ourselves
as the days roll into years
the wheels keep spinning
until there is nowhere
left to go
