Everything You Have Ever Lost
Listen to poem:
no sight required -
I won't look with my eyes
just feel my way
tip toe off
the edge of time
find what resonates loudly
hear the gift of my name
said by voices I recall
heard only in freefall
tumbling into a day
stumble backwards to when
what was lost is right there
- right there, once again
a different version of me
in a space full of calm, a place to just be
at no risk of harm
no rushing about, nor decision's unwise
just a realisation
'at last, I'm home' sighs
for right there
right now
is all the love I have known
from the second I was born
until now ~ fully grown
and it is beauty
it is light
it is true
it is clear
it is everything really...
my dearest, all near
and me
not so distracted
or unwilling to see
given a chance to give thanks
to those who truly loved me
