Lost something

I have been wanting to write something profound for a while. Sigh….it feels that all the creative energies have got lost faded with time.

This year and the months gone by have taught me a great deal about time.

It can take your breath away as much as it can wash your pain away

It can blossom like a flower in a day, as much as it can make a dead leaf glide away

It smashes like a wind, as much as it becomes soft wet sand

Hand in the water and there it goes

It makes you wonder about the self ‘that was’

And makes you wonder of the self ‘you’ve lost’

In all this and between you perplexed ask

“How do they still have me, the reason, the cause?”

As the people step up in life,

You stand there numb

The flushes that would lit your cheeks a while back

Have gone missing, perhaps drained away

Well you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you've been high when you're feeling low
Only hate the road when you're missing home

Staring at the ceiling in the dark
Same old empty feeling in your heart
'Cause time comes slow and it goes so fast

Well you see your dream when you fall asleep
But never to touch and never to keep
'Cause you are not the same and you dive too deep

Well you only need the light when it's burning low
Only miss the sun when it starts to snow
Only know you've been high when you're feeling low

Apologies for sounding like this…..

The sun comes by, blesses and then goes back too

 And I’m here, trying to rise and encapsulate the rays, shiny and true.
