You Are Coming Back Into Focus
A Poem
My vision’s been blurry in search of love But winter winds brought change and I am starting to sense that you are coming back into focus
I’ve been patient with myself as hope dwindled and laid dormant inside this battered heart But something feels different and I think it’s optimism
I used to blink a lot hoping that you would reappear but then I realized there was no you and who I was really searching for was me
Maybe I was the one that needed to come back into focus first so that you could see me when I was ready to see you and that would be our moment
And now I see the silhouette of you looking back at me wondering why I couldn’t see clearly and all I can tell you is that I refused to focus until I was ready
You are coming back into focus because my respite is complete and I am healed And I’m left wondering Will you have me?
