Finding My Way Back

Finding My Way Back

Roaming

In search of a thought

One that I may have had

At 3 months

When paradise kissed my dreams

And bestowed a smile so powerful

That it left an impression

that would remain

and often greet your sleepless morning eyes

Touched by images

That will dance

Far longer than a burning flame

And though I no longer

know why I smile,

 I smile still, for all the reasons that may be

All the reasons I once knew in a dream

Yet still they somehow comfort and carry me

Wandering

With an intent to eventually aim

steadfast and strong
without a single fear in my soul

And when I do,

I will recall what I’m searching for

And when I do,

I will touch my heart and feel it there

And much like all things found

It will be under my nose

As it was all along.

Though for now, the fun is in the wandering

One day I'll know again

Until then I’m a simple drifter

Once rich in quiet knowledge

The kind we are born with

 and then taught to forget

The kind that has never been learned

But if we are lucky, we’ll have glimpses of snapshots

Between sunrises and sunsets

And we’ll fix our eyes on a distant mountain

As the clouds circle the afternoon sun

And we’ll be grateful that some mysteries can be seen
