Where?

Wandering in finite moments.

Where?

Where can I go?
Where should I be
When “this” has never worked for me?
I should not ask
There’s no one here
An answer will not just appear.

I need to learn
This time I will
I’m swallowing the bitter pill.
It wasn’t me
I follow God
To do that now is rather odd.

Familiar themes
No longer play
I never thought I’d ever say.
But it’s just true
Somewhere inside
Ever grateful for the ride.

Just breathe the air
It’s meant for you
Everyone without a clue.
I hit the trail
I’ll walk alone,
Once was planted, now has grown.

John H. Bidwell

Change is inevitable and can be so good. Well penned as always, John.

My thoughts wandered with every stanza. You raised some profound questions with this poem.

I believe audrine has nailed it. I'm also not certain about the subject of your heartaches. This lost love seems to be different from those in your past writings. She has apparently stolen your heart and took it with her. Who is this woman that I (we) need to stay away from? And just what and why did she grip it and rip it? (Sorry about the non-poetic side of me that asks tough questions).

it seems to me that this piece is still seeking for something more but as to what and where it is, maybe a leap of faith can show. much enjoyed, thank you.

If it is any consolation, I could have written those sentiments, John. Love, peace, and best wishes to you,

Regis. 🙏🌳🌷🎵🌲
