Like a waterfall
cascading silently down the earth
into a churning river
that flows everywhere but home
My thoughts rush dangerously below
to infinite fears and questions
bringing to me
a drowning whirlpool
of uneasy discomfort
All alone,
For the moment
A bird's bittersweet song
echoes throughout my heart
If it weren't for her shadow
this grim and familiar symphony
ironically motivating me
into a stubborn will
to submit my direction
to the flowing waters
I would suddenly recognize
the constant loneliness I feel
when we are apart
