Ananda

Two years from now,
Where will I be?
On holiday,
Swimming in the sea?

At home in bed with my favourite book?
Will I still be a faithful rook?
With friends, family, or on my own,
Deeply in love or forever alone?

Will I be happy
Sad, content?
Living at home or paying rent?

I’ll have finished college, therapy, too,
Is university still what I’ll want to do?

Two years from now,
Where will I be?
Exactly the same,
Or some other me? ♦
