Where I belong

Lifepoems

So my clock will continue to tick,
While the seconds seem like days,
And the hours seem to be the years,
But years of remembrance,
Of a life so far from today,
So alien to my heart,
That fails to sway
In the direction that it’s pulled,
By the sound of some distant voice
That echoes in my ear…
It is so far away, that world
So far into the Used-To-Be,
Where water was once clear,
And these seconds were so dear,
And She would listen,
But no longer,
To words that build bridges,
That ford the river,
That connect the two banks,
And make me complete
I want to be like that,
Like that which blessed the past,
By that which brought light to dark,
That trapped what little rays
The sun chose to present
In the time when simplicity
Brought happiness,
And bliss was to be attained
At the Alter that crumbles now;
In the time when
An afternoon drive solved
All,
And all was nothing,
Or small enough to mean
As much.
Blessed is the sound!
That is it;
The sound that instructs,
That listens,
That gives so much.
The sound that permeates
Through the darkest corridors
Of this soul,
That pierces through
Thorny walls and
Undergrowth that keep
The gates closed
The key to that great secrecy,
Though held by warm hands,
May rust still
