Soul

I always dreamed

of the day

we’d find our way

back into each other,

and I could look at you,

in the windows to your soul

-the one I was never quite able

to make my own-

only to tell you that

I found myself

in the steps I took

away from you.

But I’m stranded here

between yesterday and tomorrow,

wondering how to make

today a little more happy

and filled with a lot less sorrow.
