Missing

i miss

someone to hold

to tell me it will be ok

and make the world go away

to give me love 

without end

my sweet friend

and a heart

so full of kindness

it bleeds for the world

and just being close

to feel

to hear

to know

the softness of truth

for I

am not a hard creature

I

am not one to be condemned

I should not be judged 

or directed

like water

please flow

deep

so deep

and unaffected by the rocky bottom

we are

only shallow water trips

i am never stagnant

because i am not my mind

or yours

i never can be

nor can you stay trapped

to flow is natural

to hold is divine

to feel is truth.

back

i remember

ties of peace

friends at ease

and now there's only war

disloyal to ourselves

keeping hearts that hide

fear of freedom to confide

serious smiles

so full of sadness

at the missing element

that once made us human

that once made us friends

we can never be in sunlight together again

driven apart by bodies

these souls on a journey

can the child's peace ever

reflect on our faces

will the path ever find us together

while running from choices
