Looking In

I spent so many days		
Looking over my shoulder 
Or far up ahead
Motionless circle of hands
I was sounding out words 
I could’ve said

Til sleep withdrew me
In the gentle tide	
That brought me here       
When I first arrived


Memory forest in fall
There’s a golden mirage
That I thought that I saw
I did all I could do
Just to clear all the branches 
That hung in my view

But I came to a river
That split in two
And reflected back
Was a child I knew

There’s no need to evade
The silent commotion
There’s nothing at stake
Just an I looking in
Discovering places
It’s already been
