Description
It's funny how something
Can cover your mind
At all times

It enters, unassuming,
Unexpected,
Then suddenly
It's your whole world

With you when you
Wake up
With you when reminded
(and everything reminds)

But good or bad,
You get used to it.
It's the cloth doll
You sleep with, your
Childhood blanket,
Your battered book of tales,
Your wedding ring

It's there and you
Can't imagine life
Without it

Then, as suddenly
As it came,
It leaves
Leaves you
Leaves you on your knees
Leaves its fingertips on your
Impressionable skin

And you wonder
What you did
What you thought about
What you rotated around
When it wasn't there
When you didn't even
Know it would someday
Be there…

Was it a combination
Of things?
No…
Was it this?
No…
Somehow you can't
Remember

Your life is empty
Without it

So begins
The search
To end
The space
