PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

They tell us to hold steady,

keep the ground firm,

but the ground itself shifts—

silent adjustments beneath

the weight of old decisions.

Change rolls in like the tide,

deliberate, insistent;

some brace against the swell,

others dive into it's forward pull.

Neither stillness nor

movement alone can hold us—

we are in the in-between,

where each choice sends

ripples across the surface

and every hesitation

writes itself into tomorrow.
