“Too Late” Poem of the Day (2022)

“Too Late”

By Ashley O’Hare

If today is too late,

what will I do tomorrow?

How am I supposed to grow

while I am drowning in my sorrow?

I did not craft

a back up plan.

What choices remain—

burying my head in the sand?

Why should I bother trying?

My heart begs for rest—

there is no one to let down now.

Everybody left.
