You Have Lost Me

August 28, 2006 at 2:04 am (Poetry, PresentTense)

You have lost me

In the vast ocean of driving ambition & conflicting schedules

You have lost me

In the deep wilderness of your apathy and indifference

You have lost me

In the infinite galaxy of your priorities, none of which are me

You have lost me

In the cruel desert of silent phones, unmade calls

and empty messages

You have lost me

In the frigid winter of unaccounted hours, lost minutes

and wasted seconds

You have lost me and

now my heart is learning to forget you

If some day you wake up and you realize

That you want me back in your life

Then you shall have to seek me

As though I was your Holy Grail
