Searching For You

I used to think you went away.

Source: Lars Nissen, via Pixabay. (CC0)

The day you left I felt bereft Of everything I thought my soul Could no longer sing As if There could ever be Such a thing

With every tick of the clock And every rhyme Of each chime On every hour My sweet now tasted sour

I thought you vanished Without a trace For I was unable to find you In any time Within any space Or in any place

I crumbled over your grave Transfixed in a haze Trapped in my own maze I traced your name Now etched into stone In this damn cemetery Of ash and bone So many days spent alone

With my trembling fingers Grasping on to what lingers Begging to find you even in tiny slivers The thought gave me shivers But you know this Universe Is full of givers The messenger always delivers

Now I can feel you needed your rest For you have become one of the best

Today I stand here grateful for my gain Although sometimes I am lost in the pain A solace does remain Nobody ever grieves in vain

Today I feel you in the wind I feel you in the day I feel you in all the words that I say In the walks that I take When I roam by the lake

I watch the squirrels scamper around Observe how the acorn is always found

And when the cardinal sang to me Its message seeping through The vaguely sunlit branches of a tree I now know that it is forever you That I can see

Thank you to Noorain Hassan, BMS Tree Langdon Josh Balerite Acol Dr. Preeti Singh Terry L. Cooper Dr Mehmet Yildiz Holly Holly Kellums Marcus Stuart Englander Britni Pepper for giving me a chance, and keeping me inspired with your words along the way. You remind me to never give up!
