I found comfort in next time. Each time and every time I'd tell myself that next time will be the best time if this time isn't. This time will be last time and next time will be this time. If this time isn't great, it will be last time and this time will be better, but, this time, it is next time.
Sometimes, there is no next time. This time is the last time and next time is nonexistent. This time used to be next time but that is all the time we have here. Next time cannot be better. This time cannot be improved because, this time, there is no next time. We have many last times and each last time can be improved for next time. Not this time.
