There You Are

You are there,

Yet so distant.
I can see,

Yet so faded.
Like an image,

Worn, frayed,


Tattered,

There you are,
Living in my minds attic.

A box,

In the corner,

Barely seen behind the dust.
You are there,

Yet so distant.
I can see,

Yet so faded.
Like a teddy,

From a younger year,


Importance fades,


Significance lost,

There you are,
Living in my mind’s closet.

Pushed,

Out of the way,

Forgotten.
You are there,

Yet so distant.
I can see,

Yet so faded.
Like me,

Separated,


Lost,

Forgotten,
Rip out my soul.
