"...looking for love"


Poem Artwork

Found and Lost

 

Surprised by that reflection in my mirror

Which presents me with the future of my past

I see new dreams by old ones drawn the clearer

That I am the selfsame person first and last

After all is said and done the only one

Who can truly understand the man behind

This inversion of reality I see

 

I know this face so well I could shave it blind

We have traveled fifty times around the sun

Underneath the cover of this book is me

Remaining half unwritten but well begun

 

There have been exalted pages clarified

By incandescent love and mystic yearning

And those chapters where I struggled terrified

With flame which lent no light but only burning

Such that I wondered if I might already

Have forfeited my soul and turned to turning

Away from right and wrong where light burns steady

 

Yet here I am still standing after all of

The adventures of my years still seeking light

As at morning now I am facing the night

A lost lonely little boy looking for love

I have never thought about age in terms of revolutions round the Sun before. But that is so true. Interestingly enough, love is a need we all share, like food or water. Yet, it seems our entire lives sometimes revolve around learning how to survive without it, instead of learning how to cultivate it, like a crop. LOL...Great poem Steve. ~ Sara
