Yearning for you
I lost myself
I worry
in finding me
you found you were lost yourself
perhaps
you unfurled me
hoping to find
a piece of you you didn’t
So you say
away from me you must stray
in the heroic pursuit of introspection
Tell me now wounded soldier
will you return to me victorious?
Are you someone new—
turned over?
Is your broken self too much to ask for in this modest transaction?
