In Search of Center

Looking for meaning in every lyric -

Turning rocks over in search of a sign,

for some explanation in each whisper of the wind.

Running to stay ahead of the grasp of the past -

Now just memories on pages torn from a diary,

beautiful words burnt and reduced to smoke.

Perched precariously between pain and
numbness - My skin aches for just one more yesterday,

while my mind reminds that such is futility.

The path is there, somewhere in front of me - Blinded by tears and stubbornness,
I stumble to find my center.
