Meant To Slip

It's been raining so much,

That everything, every where is slippery,

So, of course,

I skid,

When I step out,

After almost a month,

And of course,

There are people bearing witness to my downfall,

As I slip in a slow motion in my head,

And accept my fate as I land on my left bum,

That, yes, that happened,

To me in front of everyone,

And yes, no one moves to help me get up,

And yes, everyone is still staring at me,

So, yes, I get up,

Fazed a little,

A little embarrassed too,

Yet, walk upstairs,

With the same confidence,

Until someone asks me,

If I'm okay,

And I laugh and say,

Yeah, I am.

I am.

Then I look at what my t-shirt says,

What is meant to be, will be.

Of course I'm wearing this today.

Well played, universe.
