This & That
I once had IT
but then through the years
I lost IT.
IT lasted only briefly
then I got married and had kids
and IT slipped away.
but IT is not so important anymore
I really don't care if I have IT or not
IT was only a distraction.
In place of it
I have This.
But THIS requires some adjustment
THIS is not the same as IT
but THIS is better than nothing.
I don't know what comes after THIS.
It could be THAT.
And THAT is too scary to think about.
