You Poem by Annalee Somerville

I cried for you today,
Loosing you broke me,
Shattering my heart into a million pieces,
Enabling me from setting us free.
I walked alone on the beach,
I had hoped I'd find you there,
But you were not...
I cried for you no longer cared.
When the darkness came,
I searched for you,
In the darkness of the forest,
Where the clouds covered the moon.
In the specks of light,
That escaped from the moon,
I saw you briefly for a second,
You winced and took flight.
You flew to somewhere familiar and warm,
Safety from the chaos of your mind,
Where you could be free,
Where you could try to unwind.
And in that unwinding moment,
Your pain was frozen; almost free,
And you came to see that...
The You and I are really Me.
