Jan 31
I've been here before
the last day of the first month
in the new year,
yes
I've been here before.

Different but the same
or possibly the same
but a bit different,
or
I'm getting older
and my
eyesight weaker,
but
mentally stronger
I hunger no more
for those things
not meant to be
and
not meant for me,

so
different in a good way
and today is a good day
to be alive.
