Found

Lost not lonely

Friends

Dressed in skirts

Living on the outskirts

Waiting at the window

When will they arrive

A fleeting visit

A moment in time

Joy with others

Sensing

Belonging

Wondering

Trapped

Oblivious

When will I arrive

Where I want to be

Feeling

Loved and alive

Size 8 shoes

Too small for my boots

Adult sized clothing

Sleeves dragging

Not grounded

Desperately in need

Distant from

Feeling

Embarrassed

Ashamed

Limbo

Decades come

Decades go

Barricades up

I really truly did not know

Wondering

Waiting

Screaming

Hoping

Find me, save me

I'm right here

Hello

Where have you been

I’ve been looking for you

I’ve been here forever

Waiting for you

Did you ever love me

Did you ever care

You treated me so badly

I thought you’d never be there

I didn’t know how to love you

I didn’t know how to care

I treated you so badly

I never knew how to be there

For you

Then came the light

A flicker

Now bright

Together at last

One become two

Don't you worry

I'll look after you

Thank you

Finally
