One Day at a Time - February 7, 2001
I remind myself daily
that one day at a time
I must survive one day at a time.
I won't look towards tomorrow
because I must survive today.
That's what is keeping me here -
one day at a time.
I'm beyond the low hum
I hear constantly,
I remind myself -
one day at a time.
I'll never see tomorrow
if everything ends today
So that is my goal tonight
to just live one day at a time.
The throbbing pain
will go away
as I take it one day
at a time.
A dreamless death,
a deathless dream -
maybe I'll sleep today,
as I try to live
one day at a time.
Slow detachment,
and the ice floes
leave once more.
