Not quite sure for how much longer
Will this space keep on urging me
To fill it back in with the piece it's missing

Not quite sure for how much further
Would the time be for me to see
What's waiting beyond the series of nows

Not quite sure for how much deeper
Will the pain keep on growing within
Lacking needed remorse and gentleness

061617 Thoughts in longing

Of lives and puzzles

And of sorrows and longings

This being has tried to comprehend 

A great wondering

On how absence can launch the search

To that which once has been 

And that which has never been

Which is more to cause the emptiness?

The absence of what has just left

Or the nothingness of an idea

What lessons should be instilled?

Is there a should for a confused heart?

If maybe this being will turn back 

To all she has thought of once

And have stood upon,

Will the turmoil be straightened out

And the adventure be stilled?

Longing is a wonder

The desire for a nonexistent

It is a craving from deep within

An inquiry over profound devotion
