A Pointless Search
Samantha Carter
I woke up one day, determined to find out
Where you were
So I walked in the smattered shadows of tall trees
looking for your eyes, but didn't hear them.
I sawm through muddy ponds and seas
to hear the paddle of your oars, but didn't feel them.
I ran on Gobi desert sand to see if you were
floating in the heated cotton clouds,
but I smelled nothing.
So I crawled to bed once more, dejected and humbled by the weather, and resigned my eyes to sleep.
It was then I felt your breathing on my neck,
I heard your eyes beneath my cheek,
I tasted skin upon the cold, cold sheets,
and I knew that I had searched an empty place
just to return to home and sleep,
knowing exactly what I knew when I awoke.
