My Everyday Life

by Ena Wiberg

(Sweden)

The everyday life

Is not so simple any more

I miss myself

The one I was before

But I’ve stopped asking for

The reason why

I’ve lost a lot

But also gained

A fact I can’t deny

The tiny things in life

I never saw before

Now fill my heart

With pleasure

Because in everyday life

I find the real treasure

And I am not so sure

Anymore

I miss the one

I was before
