The Distance

How dare I
Stride in
With notions
Questions
Distractions to your plan

Why must you
Stand by
With indifference
Ambivalence
Lacking sense to seize me

Thus do I
Tip-toe away
With wondering
Thundering
Conquering this our plight

What You Seek

How will you find it 
Where will you go
It’s not just outside of that door
It’s not in the sing-song 
The hoping to belong
You won’t find it pacing the floor 

I suspect but don’t know
It’s there for receiving
If all at once we take a breath
Take one step then the next
To rewrite the old text
And treat it like it’s life or death
