Find me

I think I've lost something.

I felt that feeling 

something is missing

But I couldn't say

what?

I sat too long

 in hopes...

I would remember

just what 

had gone away.

I stood up

to walk around

that feeling of loss

wouldn't go away.

I stared out the window

hoping my mind

would reach out and find

~something

I tried to distracted my thoughts

by not thinking

"what could be missing?"

Maybe, it would find me.

That didn't work well.

The loss was heavy on my mind

I needed to know

"what have I left behind?"

It was like a black hole 

had filled the space 

where memories

had once been placed.

The struggle my thoughts 

put to my mind

made me wonder

was it me I had left behind?

I live in a world where my thoughts are my own

I haven't shared my dreams 

with anyone.

I've built a safe around my self 

where even I have no key.

Maybe the something I have forgotten

is 

me?

Your soul to keep

I want to float:
 with the wind
I want to sail 
on top of the ocean,
glide next to the waves
before their 
anger is broken.

I want to feel:
the beat of a warm heart
pounding within my chest
to a rhythm 
that knows no pain.

I want to touch:
beauty in a kiss
tears of joy
happiness in love
a kind mind
a true embrace.

I want to hear:
lost words
never spoken
promises that will
never be broken.

I want to fly:

spread unseen wings
feel the sun heat each feather
warm my blood 
lift my soul
inhale, breath,
jump
I'll fly 

Glass heart

A heart of glass

 easily broken

Lips tender

beg to kiss

Eyes moist

tears holding on to fall

Soft skin

  wants to be touched

Fingers unsure

to reach for love

Bright soul

hiding behind dark walls

Loving someone

shouldn't be so hard.
