"Little Details"

I created this poem, with the intention of explaining and showing how a year (and a day) can be filled with so many little experiences and details, and how people also can learn to live with those things throughout time. A year of impossible goodbyes can mean that you've had to say goodbye to so many people who can't be in your life anymore, who have either moved or passed away. People experience accidental love for people who they know will not last, but still want to love anyways, even if they are one day gone, because they truly do love them. The inheritance of loss shows how though we lose so many different things throughout a year in our life,(whether it's a family member or a tooth) we eventually learn to live with it, and realize things will be okay in the end, and we will take "small steps" to be able to get to a point where we can live with the loss, and the accidents, and goodbye's that, they eventually only seem like little details, in the large story of our lives. So, that's basically the message I wanted my poem to evoke, and what the idea was behind creating it.

A Year And A Day
A Year of Impossible Goodbyes,
Accidental Love,
The Inheritance of Loss,
and Small Steps
