Neglect

Waxing and waning,
Inspiration,
Interest,
Enthusiasm.
With just one halting, faltering stumble,
Spirals, spraying outward like spiderwebs,
Shattering like glass,
And rippling like water,
It crashes quickly out of control.
Neglecting,
Stopping,
Pausing,
That carefully maintained diligence fading,
All because of one small slip-up.
One small forgotten day,
Becoming ten thousand it can wait until tomorrows.
