Searching

 

We were lost, but didn’t know it

The stars begged us to look up, 

A shimmering, light scattered map 

The birds beckoned us to listen, 

To follow them in their directed flight

Instead I took it solo. 

 

 

I was alone and you were alone 

Always moving, but never beginning. 

 

You left 99 and went into the wild. 

I lit my lamp and swept my whole house. 

Because there was something we were missing
