...And Found

[badstar]

I fell asleep mumbling your prayer
And woke up feeling lost and abandoned
I knew you were still there
I could feel your presence surrounding me
But I begged you for a sign anyway
And when your prayer came back to me
In the words of a stranger
I realized that it was I who abandoned-
I left behind the greater part of myself
And for all I'd left, it wasn't lost
I was right there just as I left
I needed you to help me find my way back to me
It's not the first time I've wandered...
It won't be the last.
