I’ve wandered off again
on the path to nowhere
the path to somewhere
it’s shady
it’s gray
find me
I’ve lost my colors
seek my face
I’ve gone into that place
seek me out
you know how
don’t let me wander too long
come and get me
I can have my doubts
I can have my fears
I can rage against you
but I cannot bear your silence
you mighty one
seer of all
reach your too long arm down
pull me from the left
goad me back from the right
place me in the middle
set me straight
fix the crooked path
come and get me
see me among the thorns
I am hiding again
lay your gaze upon me
I am lost
I am searching
I am seeking
I am almost there
I am not even close
I am reaching
find me, you
don’t let my heart be swallowed
don’t let me get hard
don’t let me be afraid
don’t let me be angry
find my tender heart
pull it up and let it flood
let it go
who am I?
find me
gentle voice
simple token
pleasures
twinkling joy
find me and keep me
safe
straight
looking side to side
but not lost
solutions in the unanswerables
find me seeking
guide me searching
lift me into the shadows
the comforts of all and nothing
warmth
find me
