SWEPT AWAY

Written in a dark period of my life.............

I talk to you

And you listen to me

But you're not there

Not really…..

 

I get the feeling

That life is too busy

For you…..

Too intense

Too difficult

 

And I am just swept away

Like a leaf in a storm

Floating and forgotten…….

Washed away

 

I am there but

Not really, not quite

I am seen but not perceived

I am there but invisible

 

These roles we play

Are complex

As all of life is………

 

We are there but not with each other

We always yearn for more
