These are the things I think about around the time of my birthday.

Choices May Change

Choices may change but our hearts remain the same
suspended
Between the future’s glimmering, shining, blinding hope
and the past’s opportunities missed - those lingering shadows that influence.

We no longer assume.
We no longer surmise.
It takes so much more to be surprised so that when delight is ignited
it is an event held dear.

Choices may change but our hearts remain the same
caught
in the frequencies of memory
rumbling, stumbling, crashing through invited and uninvited
a song stuck in my head, repeating
the tune inextricable
a lingering melody that persists until another melody displaces it.

Choices may change, but our hearts remain the same
comforted
by the familiarity of temperament despite the alterations of time.
So that recognition is instant in history and love
that lingers indefinitely in the body’s deepest cavities.

We no longer assume.
We no longer surmise.
It take so much more to be surprised.

Choices may change, but our hearts remain the same.
