Yesterday, I got lost.
But,
I didn’t realize it until I
reached my destination. Somehow,
I got to where I was going
without a map —
my phone died,
I couldn’t recognize any strangers
on the sidewalk with faces
that looked like they knew
where they were going either.
But,
I’m sure they arrived where they’d intended,
just as I did, and
I’m sure, like me,
they’d had no idea
they were even trying
to get somewhere
in the first place,
or that they were even
lost.

Somehow,
we become an adult
from an infant.
In such an incremental way
progressing from inches to
feet.
Our hair and eyes change,
height,
weight –
And still we remain the same,
our transformations keeping us whole.
