Orientation Week Poem

So....I decided to try and post something I've written and see how I like it. Just a disclaimer- I am not lonesome or depressed. The poem was written by the beginning of the year, when I was feeling just a bit overwhelmed. And, incidentally, I was trying out a new style, which I'm still not entirely sure how I feel about.

Day fades into day
Like rain on a windowpane.
And sound slips in
to die upon the floor.


And someday this all will be my normal,
And time will have passed
like a movie flipping months.

And this will all be once and remember when.

Taking my pulse too often,
And caring too much.
Multiplying every moment by forever
And trying not to wonder when it all will change
