I lost you in the days when we
were mired in the weekly grind;
the heart and body set aside
to cultivate (or use) the mind
I lost you when we realized
how much was worn and tattered
from all of the neglectful time
misjudging what had mattered
And now, there is no you to find,
though I might travel far, or near,
for objects in the mirror are
far guiltier than they
appear
