how are you

how are you

how is your heart 

I haven’t checked back on you

it’s been almost a year

are you struggling 

or are you enjoying

life as it is

we’ve been doing this 

for so many years

did you see all the good parts

did you keep all the tears

and skip the rest

“what is your one regret?”

can you hear the clouds laughing

jumping from this mountain 

to the next

can you hear the fish sing 

swimming across the ocean 

against the strong current 

“if tomorrow never came

what would you have done?”

t.l.

checking back with myself once in a while
