Just Reach Out...

life

        There you sit

        waiting for me to return; 

        unaware I never left.

        There you sit

        letting self pity

        veil my very presence.

        All this time

        I have been right here;

        I never left.

        You just need to crawl

        out of your sad cocoon,

        blink, and look into the light.    

        See me and my shadow

        waiting—marinating—praying 

        and hoping to be realized again;

        letting our lives once more be

        in that aurora of peace and love.

        Remember, winter, spring, summer,

        or fall, I’ll always be there.  Just reach

        out and call me.  I’ll be there: I promise.
