I showed up, God. 
Maybe I'm early because it
doesn't seem like anything is happening yet. 
At least, not that I can see.
I'm not even sure why I'm here.
Maybe it's just habit. 
Or maybe 
hope. 
Just a little bit of hope. 
I don't have much left. 
Not today. 
Or yesterday. 
But maybe tomorrow.
I've been here before
in this place with little
hope. 
It looks familiar.
Unfortunately.
Or maybe that's a good thing.
Yes, I have been here a time
or two.
More often than I'd like to
admit. 
But I didn't stay.
