I Hope

I remember things
Like they happened yesterday
And then realize
That they happened 8, or 10, or 15 years ago
The tiny spider vein on the inside of my right leg at 21
At 24 has turned into a whole cluster
And every time I see a baby
I long for one of my own

I hope deep inside
That the last two years of my life
Have not
Been wasted
