Unaware of the Where....

Unaware of the Where.....

I may have accepted the truth,

Yet how real it feels, I cannot say.

The facts remain, but I can’t find my place in them;

Their weight is vague,

Their echo unbearable.

I’m moving forward, or so I claim.....

But the ground beneath me still wavers.

I know you're there...

Where, I do not know.

Life was once painted in color,

And perhaps we still try to add more.

But every tie-dye we once made together

Now ceases to fade..

As if time, too, refuses to let go.

I reach deep within to release the sorrow,

Yet I cling to the breath that steadies me.

The breath you once shared,

The warmth that lived in your embrace..

Now lives only in the threads you left behind.

And still, a sudden chill steals even that away.

Cast away... to cast a way.

Nurture my steps from wherever you are.

I try to move, truly I do...

But something holds me still.

Stay with me, forever, my love.

I know you're there,

Only... unaware of the where.💔
