Full yet hunger remains

Time has slipped away from me.
Looking back
afraid of what I see.
I am a shadow
of the man I wanted to be.

Respect and honor
is what I tried
to show.
My face remains averted,
I really didn't know.

Who you were or who you are-
Have I gone too far?

Promises-
too many made to me.
Cold and cruel,
unforgiving as the sea.

Do you even know what
I am looking for?

Through tear stained eyes
tell me what you see.
A zero in disguise?
Or just ashamed of me?

Do you even know
what you were looking for?

I'm lost in ruin
My dreams have been torn complete.
An abandoned story
no one dares to read.

Sit still, I wait for you.
One simple step to take
together yet alone
afraid that it's too late.

Do we even really know who we are
or what we were looking for?
