i guess from the beginning
i wasn’t meant to return
as soon as i had once thought
a gathering
to say goodbyes
‘i won’t be long’
yet here i am
still here
searching through the depths
through
the rain
sunshine
forest
ocean and
mountains
i know i’m close
except now
i’m stronger
because
i’m half of me (now)
AnD
half of her (the past)
now
i am ready
