Little is big. 
The small things, the little moments

Have a huge impact on life. 

Like my commute. 

All know by now,

How I have to drag myself from my ritualistic lover-wake up call

To catch the 7.43 beast, the unstoppable local.

Did it. Savoured the little triumph. 

Check. Tick!

Only to realise moments later

That I’m going to miss the 8.55 at my connecting stop

Ugh! I was going to be late by two precious min! 

Missed! Tac! 

And therein lies the eternal tension.

The constant battle you fight

In between the moments

The tiny struggles and the little triumphs

Follow each other in quick succession

Making a huge impact on your life. 

The Yin and Yang. 

Tic. Tac. 

By this time I reached my connecting station and saw what!

My 855 was still there…

Just long enough for me to squeeze past…

Tic!
