Books, on the shelf, unread ...
Projects, in the mind, unstarted ...
Gardens unattended ...
Equipment unrepaired ...
Friends drifted away ...
Love unrequited ...
Games never played ...
Thoughts unconnected ...
Prayers never uttered ...
Trips never taken ...
Souls never saved ...
Growth unachieved ...
Time unredeemed ...
Serenity squandered ...
It's a delusional, if not dishonest, "soon"
to the childish question
"when are we getting there?"
Just enjoy the journey?!
Fulfilled in the next life?!
