Now,
my life is like
a faded postmark,
left at the bottom
of this paper shoebox.
Waiting,
for the time
when you will read again.
Hoping,
the flames don’t catch me first.
As I wander
with hope and isolation, believing
that my past now lacks.
The memory of breathe-
do they think of me
as the prayers lessen in strength.
How can their thoughts now permeate
that which separates us?
I’m now blind
as I drift from that place
we could feel as one.
When the multitude of substance
was aloft in their dreams.
How could I know
as you watched my arms
drift,
still reaching from one million miles away.
I can’t think anymore.

If nothing is something
then everything is
our thoughts and feelings
and all that exists.
