One Day

It's funny,
I keep waiting to grow up
and say things like
one day...

One day, I'll take
ballroom dancing lessons.
One day, I'll publish my novel
and adapt it into a screenplay.

I am 36 years old,
almost 37,
and everyone in my family.
died young.

How many more
one-days do I have?
It's funny,
because no one knows.
