Try Not to Cry

by Alison McKenzie

I sniffle back the tears,
Determined they will not fall,
Betrayal of the most ridiculous
Circumstance.

Things are always changing,
But with a circular
“This has happened before”
Certainty.

The shores of my reality
Are constantly being lapped by
The same waves of
Tranquility.

This same thing happens to me...I just couldn't find words for it, as you so vividly have.
