finding your place in what keeps changing

it is okay
if it takes time
to find your place
in what keeps changing.
like the sky at the
edge of evening,
you have been learning
how to carry memory of
the sun’s fire through the dark,
while also allowing morning
to arrive on its own time.
it hasn’t been easy,
for so much as been shifting,
and yet, you have yet to disappear.
you’re still here,
slowly finding
rhythms in daylight,
gently remembering
how to live
fully again.
