Lost!

When you are here
I wonder who you are
When you are gone,
I wonder if you really left

When you speak,
In your voice, I can't find words.
When you pause,
I can't find my breath

When you walk in without a warning,
I am buried deep in the ground.
When you sit still
I am lost in an unknown sky

When the breeze touches your hair,
When an ant walks by your feet,
When an unseen bird sings away as you speak,
I rejoice, I weep, I am drunk, my every bit!

How can I ask you my question
My only question is you.
Your coming and going
And being here and not
The memory and dreaming
Of all this and that,
Adds up to a question?

Let me sit here.
Pretend you don't know..
Only a little while more..

For the moment you turn your eyes
The earth cracks up,
The skies tear down,
And I wonder if I really am!
