Of Things Gone Away

I stare at this page
Feeling lost within it's white
So many things seen
Yet so many out of sight

All I held sacred
Like gospel to a prayer
Seem somehow diluted
And no longer there

So powerful is the eye
To rule the heart and lead the mind
Only when shadows dance
Is it truth we shall find

We live each day
Through a pattern of thought
Of life's little lessons
Of battles already fought

But of what is our future
Is it always so near
Is it already written
Is change our real fear

This one almost did get away I try to read everything thats posted but this little cracker almost slipped the net and that would have been a sad loss.

I like it lots.
