I've realized today that I hated that word
when it was applied in terms to myself,
something that will happen to me, or with me.
Because I have always been disappointed
in the past when someone promised "someday".
But in a different light, when someone says
they're going to do something "someday" --
well, I hope it comes true for them, but I doubt it will.
There was a time when I made assumptions. No more.
There was a time when I had hopes. No more.
Does this mean I'm growing up?
that I've given up?
I don't think so.
Maybe I'm more focused on reality,
and not the fantasies of how things could be.
someday is a code word for never.
